The recent high statistics NMC data on the Tin to Carbon structure function ratio seems to indicate, for the first time, a significant $Q^2$ dependence, especially at small values of Bjorken $x$, $x < 0.05$, and $Q^2 > 1 GeV^2$. Pure…
Spin-1 hadrons have additional structure functions not present for spin 1/2 hadrons. These could probe novel aspects of hadron structure and QCD dynamics. For the deuteron, the tensor structure function $b_1$ inherently mixes quark and…
