The ratio of the structure function F 2 n / F 2 p ( x ) has been measured in deep inelastic scattering of 274 GeV muons on hydrogen and deuterium targets exposed simultaneously to the beam. The results were obtained from 0.3 (0.6) million events from hydrogen (deuterium) in the range 0.004 < x < 0.8 and 1 < Q 2 < 190 GeV 2 . At x < 0.25 both the statistical and the systematic error is below 2%. Implications for parton distributions and for the σ w / σ z production cross section ratio in p p collisions are discussed. When compared to other results obtained at lower energies, the data indicate a Q 2 dependence of the ratio.

Measurements of the Nucleon Structure Function in the Range 0.002-GeV**2 < x < 0.17-GeV**2 and 0.2-GeV**2 < q**2 < 8-GeV**2 in Deuterium, Carbon and Calcium

Inspire Record 283347 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33074

Small angle scattering of 280 GeV positive muons by deuterium, carbon and calcium has been measured at scattering angles down to 2 mrad. The nucleon structure function F 2 extracted from deuterium does not show a significant x dependence in the measured range of Q 2 and its Q 2 dependence is linear in log Q 2 . For calcium, a depletion of F 2 is observed at low x by 30% as compared with the values at x = 0.1 where F 2 (Ca) and F 2 (D) are not significantly different. This depletion is attributed to shadowing. The carbon structure function exhibits a similar, but less pronounced, x dependence. Such behaviour is observed to be independent of Q 2 . The data are consistent with those obtained from other charged lepton experiments both at similar and higher values of x and Q 2 and considerably extend the range of the measurements down to the low values of x to be measured in forthcoming experiments at HERA.

Experimental Study of X Distributions in Semileptonic Neutral Current Neutrino and Anti-neutrino Reactions

Phys.Lett.B 213 (1988) 554-561, 1988.
Inspire Record 264997 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29877

Using the CHARM detector 36 000 deep inelastic neutral-current reactions of neutrinos (and 2000 of antineutrinos) from the 160 GeV narrow-band beam were recorded. The differential cross section d σ d x in the Bjorken scaling variable x was computed by unfolding the effects of limited acceptance and of resolution of the detector as well as the ambiguity of the energy of the incoming neutrinos (produced by π- or K-decay). Combining the results from the neutrino and antineutrino data, the structure functions F 2 and xF 3 and the antiquark momentum distribution measured via the NC coupling were determined. The distributions are in agreement with the corresponding CC distibutions. Comparisons with deep inelastic muon scattering confirm the universality of nuclear structure functions as probed by the weak and the electromagnetic currents.

Measurement of the Ratios of Deep Inelastic Muon - Nucleus Cross-Sections on Various Nuclei Compared to Deuterium

The European Muon collaboration Ashman, J. ; Badelek, B. ; Baum, Guenter ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 202 (1988) 603-610, 1988.
Inspire Record 260668 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29991

Results are presented on the ratios of the deep inelastic muon-nucleus cross sections for carbon, copper and tin nuclei to those measured on deuterium. The data confirm that the structure functions of the nucleon measured in nuclei are different from those measured on quasi-free nucleons in deuterium. The kinematic range of the data is such that 〈 Q 2 〉 ∼ 5 GeV 2 at x ∼ 0.03, increasing to 〈 Q 2 〉 ∼ 35 GeV 2 for x ∼ 0.65. The measured cross section ratios are less than unity for x ≲ 0.05 and for 0.25 ≲ x < 0.7. The decrease of the ratio below unity for low x becomes larger as A increases as might be expected from nuclear shadowing. However, this occurs at relatively large values of Q 2 (∼ 5 GeV 2 ) indicating that such shadowing is of patrionic origin.

A Comparison of the Energy Distributions of Hadrons Produced in Deep Inelastic Scattering of Muons on Hydrogen and Deuterium Targets

The European Muon collaboration Aubert, J.J. ; Bassompierre, G. ; Becks, K.H. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 31 (1986) 175, 1986.
Inspire Record 227131 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.1817

The energy distribution of inclusive hadrons produced by 280 GeV muons on hydrogen and deuterium targets are compared. The sum of the scaled energy distributions of the positive and negative hadrons is found to be the same for the two targets. The difference of these distributions is observed to factorise inx andz and thez-dependence is found to be independent of the target type and have a form (1−z)2.1±0.2. The net charge of the hadronic jet is positive at highx even in the case when the scattering takes place on the neutron. These results are in good agreement with the expectations of the Quark Parton Model.
