We derive the general structure of the hadronic tensor required to describe deep-inelastic scattering from an off-shell nucleon within a covariant formalism. Of the large number of possible off-shell… (More)
A re-analysis of data from NMC and SLAC leads to a great improvement in our knowledge of the valence d and u parton distribution functions at high x. Standard parton distributions with our… (More)
We calculate nuclear shadowing in lepton-deuteron deep inelastic scattering, which arises from the double scattering of the virtual photon from both nucleons in the deuteron. The total correction to… (More)
The possible role played by vector mesons in inclusive deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering is investigated. In the context of the convolution model, we calculate self-consistently the scaling… (More)
We discuss spin-dependent, deep-inelastic scattering from nuclei within a co-variant framework. In the relativistic impulse approximation this is described in terms of the amplitude for forward,… (More)
We study deep-inelastic scattering from polarized nuclei within a covariant framework. A clear connection is established between relativistic and non-relativistic limits, which enables a rigorous… (More)
Recent data on the proton F2 structure function in the resonance region suggest that local quark-hadron duality works remarkably well for each of the low-lying resonances, including the elastic, to… (More)
