Nuclear parton distributions are studied in a parton model with rescaling and recombination mechanisms. Parton x distributions are first calculated at Q^2=1 GeV^2 by the model, and they are evolved to larger Q^2 in order to be compared with…
Measurements of proton structure functions made in neutral and charged current interactions at HERA are discussed, covering four-momentum transfers Q^2 from about 0.5 GeV^2 to 30000 GeV^2. The results include the rise of the structure…
Starting from an unintegrated gluon distribution which satisfies a `unified' equation which embodies both BFKL and DGLAP behaviour, we compute the shadowing corrections to the integrated gluon in the small x domain that will be accessible…
We demonstrate that leading twist nuclear shadowing leads to large corrections for the extraction of the neutron structure function F_2n from the future deuteron collider data both in the inclusive and in the tagged structure function…
Gribov theory is applied to investigate the shadowing effects in the structure functions of nuclei. In this approach these effects are related to the process of diffractive dissociation of a virtual photon. A model for this diffractive…
Nuclear shadowing corrections are dominated by soft interaction and grow as function of $1/x$ more slowly than the single scattering term, which has an essential contribution from hard interaction. Therefore, we predict vanishing nuclear…
A precise proton structure function F_2 at low x is measured. The data is interpreted in the framework of QCD with an extraction of gluon density xg. The charm contribution to F_2 is determined in an extended kinematic range. Neutral and…
We show that recent data from HERA on the proton structure function $F_2$ at small $x$ and large $Q^2$ provide a direct confirmation of the double asymptotic scaling prediction of perturbative QCD. A linear rise of $\ln F_2$ with the…
We suggest to use polarized nuclear targets of $^7$Li and $^3$He to study nuclear effects in the spin dependent structure functions $g_{1A}(x,Q^2)$. These effects are expected to be enhanced by a factor of two as compared to the unpolarized…
Self-similar properties of proton structure in the kinematic region of low Bjorken x are introduced and studied numerically. A description of the proton structure function F2(x,Q2) reflecting self-similarity is proposed with a few…
We consider deep inelastic scattering off nuclei in the Regge limit within the Glauber-Gribov model. Using unitarized parton distribution functions for the proton, we find sizeable shadowing effects on the nuclear total and longitudinal…
Deep inelastic structure functions $F_2^A(x)$ are investigated in a $Q^2$ rescaling model with parton recombination effects. We find that the model can explain experimentally measured $F_2^A(x)$ structure functions reasonably well in the…
A detailed numerical study of radiative corrections in the low $Q^2$ region at the HERA $ep$ collider was performed. The specific case of the total photoproduction cross section measurement was taken as an example. Two different programs,…
Nuclear shadowing corrections to the structure functions of deep inelastic scattering of intermediate-mass nuclei are calculated at very low values of Bjorken x and small values of Q^2 (Q^2<5 GeV^2). The two-component approach (generalized…
The proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) is measured in inelastic QED Compton scattering using data collected with the H1 detector at HERA. QED Compton events are used to access the kinematic range of very low virtualities of the exchanged…
We re-examine the role of vector meson dominance in nuclear shadowing at low Q^2. We find that models which incorporate both vector meson and partonic mechanisms are consistent with both the magnitude and the Q^2 slope of the shadowing…
In the framework of the collinear factorized pQCD approach we calculate the small-$x_B$ process-dependent nuclear modification to the structure functions measured in neutrino-nucleus deeply inelastic scattering. We include both heavy quark…
We re-examine the predictions of a two-phase model of shadowing in nuclear deep-inelastic scattering in light of new NMC data on the x, A and Q**2 dependence of the ratios of structure functions. The model, which combines vector meson…
A simple parametrisation of H1 and ZEUS data at HERA is given for the ranges in x and Q^2 of 10^{-4} - 5.10^{-2} and 5 - 250 GeV^2, respectively. This empirical expression is based on a strikingly similar dependence of the average charged…
We present the results of a phenomenological study of unpolarized nuclear structure functions for a wide kinematical region of x and Q^2. As a basis of our phenomenology we develop a model which takes into account a number of different…
