Measurements of R = $\sigma$(L)/sigma(T) for 0.03 < x < 0.1 and fit to world data.

Measurements were made at SLAC of the cross section for scattering 29 GeV electrons from carbon at a laboratory angle of 4.5 degrees, corresponding to 0.03&lt;x&lt;0.1 and 1.3&lt;Q^2&lt;2.7 GeV^2. Values of R=sigma_L/sigma_T were extracted in this kinematic range by comparing these data to cross sections measured at a higher beam energy by the NMC collaboration. The results are in reasonable agreement with pQCD calculations and with extrapolations of the R1990 parameterization of previous data. A new fit is made including these data and other recent results.

Inclusive electron scattering from nuclei at x approximately = 1

Arrington, J. ; Anthony, P. ; Arnold, R.G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 53 (1996) 2248-2251, 1996.
Inspire Record 394586 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25857

The inclusive A(e,e') cross section for $x \simeq 1$ was measured on $~2$H, C, Fe, and Au for momentum transfers $Q~2$ from 1-7 (GeV/c)$~2$. The scaling behavior of the data was examined in the region of transition from y-scaling to x-scaling. Throughout this transitional region, the data exhibit $\xi$-scaling, reminiscent of the Bloom-Gilman duality seen in free nucleon scattering.

Measurement of kinematic and nuclear dependence of R = sigma-L / sigma-t in deep inelastic electron scattering

Dasu, S. ; deBarbaro, P. ; Bodek, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 49 (1994) 5641-5670, 1994.
Inspire Record 360765 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22468

We report results on a precision measurement of the ratio R=σLσT in deep inelastic electron-nucleon scattering in the kinematic range 0.2≤x≤0.5 and 1≤Q2≤10 (GeV/c)2. Our results show, for the first time, a clear falloff of R with increasing Q2. Our R results are in agreement with QCD predictions only when corrections for target mass effects and some additional higher twist effects are included. At small x, the data on R favor structure functions with a large gluon contribution. We also report results on the differences RA−RD and the cross section ratio σAσD between Fe and Au nuclei and the deuteron. Our results for RA−RD are consistent with zero for all x, Q2 indicating that possible contributions to R from nuclear higher twist effects and spin-0 constituents in nuclei are not different from those in nucleons. The ratios σAσD from all recent experiments, at all x, Q2 values, are now in agreement.

Measurement of the A-dependence of deep inelastic electron scattering

Gomez, J. ; Arnold, R.G. ; Bosted, Peter E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 49 (1994) 4348-4372, 1994.
Inspire Record 359103 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22575

Cross sections for deep-inelastic electron scattering from liquid deuterium, gaseous He4, and solid Be, C, Al, Ca, Fe, Ag, and Au targets were measured at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center using electrons with energies ranging from 8 to 24.5 GeV. These data cover a range in the Bjorken variable x from 0.089 to 0.8, and in momentum transfer Q2 from 2 to 15 (GeV/c)2. The ratios of cross sections per nucleon (σAσd)is for isoscalar nuclei have been extracted from the data. These ratios are greater than unity in the range 0.1<x<0.3, while for 0.3<x<0.8 they are less than unity and decrease logarithmically with atomic weight A, or linearly with average nuclear density. No Q2 dependence in the ratios was observed over the kinematic range of the data. These results are compared to various theoretical predictions.

A Precise extraction of R = sigma-L / sigma-T from a global analysis of the SLAC deep inelastic e p and e d scattering cross-sections

Phys.Lett.B 250 (1990) 193-198, 1990.
Inspire Record 296980 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29555

We report the extraction of R = σ L / σ T from a global analysis of eight SLAC deep inelastic experiments on e-p and e-d scattering performed between 1970 and 1985. Values of R p , R d , and R d − R p are determined over the entire SLAC kinematic range: 0.1⩽ x ⩽0.9 and 0.6⩽ Q 2 ⩽20.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 . We find that R p = R d . Measured values of R ( x , Q 2 ) are larger than predictions based on perturbative QCD and on QCD with the inclusion of kinematic target mass terms, indicating that dynamical higher twist effects may be important in the SLAC kinematic range.

Precision Measurement of R = $\sigma^-$l / $\sigma^- T$ and F(2) in Deep Inelastic Electron Scattering

Phys.Rev.Lett. 61 (1988) 1061, 1988.
Inspire Record 262063 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20079

We report new results on a precision measurement of the ratio R=σLσT and the structure function F2 for deep-inelastic electron-nucleon scattering in the kinematic range 0.2≤x≤0.5 and 1≤Q2≤10 (GeV/c)2. Our results show, for the first time, a clear falloff of R with increasing Q2. Our R and F2 results are in good agreement with QCD predictions only when corrections for target-mass effects are included.

Measurement of the Difference in R = $\sigma^-$l / $\sigma^-$t and $\sigma$(a) / $\sigma(D$) in Deep Inelastic $e D$, $e$ Fe and $e$ Au Scattering

Dasu, S. ; de Barbaro, P. ; Bodek, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 60 (1988) 2591, 1988.
Inspire Record 260760 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20155

We measured the differences in R=σLσT and the cross-section ratio σAσD in deep-inelastic electron scattering from D, Fe, and Au nuclei in the kinematic range 0.2≤x≤0.5 and 1≤Q2≤5 (Gev/c)2. Our results for RA−RD are consistent with zero for all x and Q2, indicating that possible contributions to R from nuclear higher-twist effects and spin-0 constituents in nuclei are not different from those in nucleons. The European Muon Collaboration effect is reconfirmed, and the low-x data from all recent experiments, at all Q2, are now in agreement.

MEASUREMENTS OF SHADOWING IN LOW Q**2 ELECTROPRODUCTION ON NUCLEI

Bailey, J. ; Botterill, D.R. ; Montgomery, Hugh E. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 151 (1979) 367-388, 1979.
Inspire Record 132234 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34763

Measurements of inelastic electron scattering have been made in the range 2.2 < ν < 3.8 GeV and 0.1 < | Q 2 | < 0.3 (GeV/ c ) 2 , on a selection of nuclei ranging from hydrogen and deuterium to uranium, by measuring the scattered electron only. Detailed calculations have been made of the contribution of radiative tails to the measured yield. The results show a small ‘shadowing’ consistent with other electroproduction experiments, and also with photoproduction experiments in this ν range, but the shadowing decreases rapidly as | Q 2 | increases.

A Comparison of the Deep Inelastic Structure Functions of Deuterium and Aluminum Nuclei

Bodek, A. ; Giokaris, N. ; Atwood, W.B. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 51 (1983) 534, 1983.
Inspire Record 189856 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20489

The deep-inelastic electromagnetic structure functions of deuterium and aluminum nuclei have been measured. The kinematic dependence of the ratio of aluminum and deuterium structure functions is similar to the dependence of the ratio of steel and deuterium structure functions, and provides further evidence for the distortion of the quark momentum distributions of nucleons bound in a nucleus.
