Deep inelastic electron scattering off nuclei and dynamically generated parton distributions

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

A study of deep inelastic electron-nucleus scattering is presented. The approach assumes that the non-perturbative component of the parton distributions can be approximated by constituent quark model wave functions for both free and bound nucleons. The perturbative contribution is evaluated by using the renormalization group evolution equations. Results are obtained for a large class of nuclei and the effects of conventional short-range nuclear dynamics included in the discussion. The dynamically generated sea and gluon content of the nucleus is investigated and rescaling and change in confinement scale are discussed in connection with the evolution procedure. Results in the regionx>1 are also presented.
