A density dependent, effective nucleon-nucleon force of the Skyrme type is derived from the quark-meson coupling model -- a self-consistent, relativistic quark level description of nuclear matter. This new formulation requires no assumption…
We investigate the binding energy parameters that should be used in modeling electron and neutrino scattering from nucleons bound in a nucleus within the framework of the impulse approximation. We discuss the relation between binding…
Semi-inclusive deep inelastic electron scattering off polarized 3He is studied in a non-relativistic framework, using a distorted spin-dependent spectral function for 3He to take care of the final state interaction between the observed pion…
The contribution to the $\rho$--parameter of the quark--Higgs sector of the supersymmetric standard model is computed non--perturbatively using the large--$\nf$ expansion for the case tan$\beta$=0. An explicit formula is found for the…
Deep inelastic polarized and unpolarized structure functions for a free nucleon are obtained in a modified Center-of-Mass bag model, which includes the symmetry breaking effects from spin-dependent interactions. The quark distribution…
One of the open problems in nuclear structure is how to predict properties of finite nuclei from the knowledge of a bare nucleon-nucleon interaction of the meson-exchange type. We point out that a promising starting point consists in…
We propose to measure tagged deep inelastic scattering from light nuclei (deuterium and $^4$He) by detecting the low energy nuclear spectator recoil (p, $^3$H and $^3$He) in addition to the scattered electron. The proposed experiment will…
The nuclei $^4$He, $^8$Be, $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O have been studied starting from nucleon-nucleon interactions of $v_4$ type. The wave function is built as the product of three terms, a Jastrow correlation factor, a linear correlation factor…
Background: The density of the nucleus has been important in explaining the nuclear dependence of the quark distributions, also known as the EMC effect, as well as the presence of highmomentum nucleons arising from short-range correlations…

The paper presents a novel approach to the description of the nonrelativistic weak interaction of a massive neutral particle (lepton) and a nucleus, in which the latter retains its integrity. The cross section of such a process is a sum of…
The current status of measurements of the nucleon structure functions and their understanding is reviewed. The fixed target experiments E665, CCFR and NMC and the HERA experiments H1 and ZEUS are discussed in some detail. The extraction of…
We explain the current status of nuclear parton distribution functions in connection with neutrino-nucleus interactions. Neutrino deep inelastic scattering (DIS) measurements have been done for heavy nuclear targets such as iron and lead.…
Symmetric nuclear matter is studied within the conserving, self-consistent T-matrix approximation. This approach involves off-shell propagation of nucleons in the ladder diagrams. The binding energy receives contributions from the…
Mutual entrainment effects in cold neutron-proton mixtures are studied in the framework of the self-consistent nuclear energy-density functional theory. Exact expressions for the mass currents, valid for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous…
Compressional properties of nuclear matter are studied by using the mean field theory with the excluded volume effects of the nucleons. It is found that the excluded volume effects make it possible to fit the empirical data of the Coulomb…
We present our recent progress on the relativistic modeling of electron-nucleus reactions and compare our predictions with inclusive $^{12}$C ($e,e'$) experimental data in a wide kinematical region. The model, originally based on the…
Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model we study nuclear matter from the point of view of quark degrees of freedom. As the nucleon model we adopt the MIT bag model and the relativistic constituent quark model, where a square well and…
The Paschos-Wolfenstein (PW) relation joins neutral- and charged-current neutrino- and antineutrino-induced cross sections into an expression that depends on the weak mixing angle $\sin^2 \theta_W$. Contrary to the traditional approach with…
