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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

Measurements of the a-Dependence of Deep Inelastic electron Scattering from Nuclei

Arnold, R.G. ; Bosted, Peter E. ; Chang, C.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 52 (1984) 727, 1984.
Inspire Record 193846 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20435

The deep-inelastic electron-scattering cross sections per nucleon σA for D, He, Be, C, A1, Ca, Fe, Ag, and Au were measured in the kinematic range 0.09<~x<~0.9 and 2<~Q2<~15 (GeV/c)2 with use of electrons with energies ranging from 8 to 24.5 GeV. The ratio σAσD is consistent with unity in the range 0.1<x<0.3. For 0.3<x<0.8, the ratio decreases logarithmically with atomic weight A, or linearly with average nuclear density. No Q2 dependence in the ratio was observed over the kinematic range of the data.

Measurement of elastic electron - neutron scattering and inelastic electron - deuteron scattering cross-sections at high momentum transfer

Phys.Rev.D 46 (1992) 24-44, 1992.
Inspire Record 322422 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.18708

We have measured inelastic electron-deuteron, electron-proton, and electron-aluminum cross sections at 10° in the kinematic region between elastic deuteron scattering and the second resonance region at six beam energies between 9.8 and 21 GeV. The elastic electron-neutron cross section was extracted from the quasielastic data at Q2=2.5,4.0,6.0,8.0, and 10.0 (GeV/c)2. The ratio of elastic cross sections σnσp falls with increasing Q2 above 6 (GeV/c)2. The inelastic data are compatible either with y scaling (scattering from a single nucleon) or with ξ scaling (scattering from quarks).
