Abstract
It is shown that the combination of the structure functions F 2 predicted by the CKMT model at low and moderate values of Q 2 and the MRS99 parton distribution functions at high Q 2 gives a good description of the data over the complete measured region of x and Q 2. Using these structure functions, the main characteristics of the muon-nuclear inelastic scattering are calculated. Nuclear effects and contributions of the neutral current and the γ-Z interference are taken into account.
