Measurement of the proton and deuteron structure functions, F2p and F2d, and of the ratio sigma(L)/sigma(T)
The muon-proton and muon-deuteron inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross
sections were measured in the kinematic range 0.002 < x < 0.60 and 0.5 < Q2 <
75 GeV2 at incident muon energies of 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. These results
are based on the full data set collected by the New Muon Collaboration,
including the data taken with a small angle trigger. The extracted values of
the structure functions F2p and F2d are in good agreement with those from other
experiments. The data cover a sufficient range of y to allow the determination
of the ratio of the longitudinally to transversely polarised virtual photon
absorption cross sections, R= sigma(L)/sigma(T), for 0.002 < x < 0.12 . The
values of R are compatible with a perturbative QCD prediction; they agree with
earlier measurements and extend to smaller x.Comment: In this replacement the erroneously quoted R values in tables 3-6 for
x>0.12, and R1990 values in tables 5-6 for all x, have been corrected, and
the cross sections in tables 3-4 have been adapted. Everything else,
including the structure functions F2, remained unchanged. 22 pages, LateX,

Large enhancement of deuteron polarization with frequency modulated microwaves
We report a large enhancement of 1.7 in deuteron polarization up to values of
0.6 due to frequency modulation of the polarizing microwaves in a two liters
polarized target using the method of dynamic nuclear polarization. This target
was used during a deep inelastic polarized muon-deuteron scattering experiment
at CERN. Measurements of the electron paramagnetic resonance absorption spectra
show that frequency modulation gives rise to additional microwave absorption in
the spectral wings. Although these results are not understood theoretically,
they may provide a useful testing ground for the deeper understanding of
dynamic nuclear polarization.Comment: 10 pages, including the figures coming in uuencoded compressed tar

Measurement of the proton and the deuteron structure functions F2p and F2d
The proton and deuteron structure functions F2p and F2d were measured in the
kinematic range 0.006<x<0.6 and 0.5<Q^2<75 GeV^2, by inclusive deep inelastic
muon scattering at 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. The measurements are in good
agreement with earlier high precision results. The present and earlier results
together have been parametrised to give descriptions of the proton and deuteron
structure functions F2 and their uncertainties over the range 0.006<x<0.9.Comment: 22 pages, using LATEX, 12pt, epsfig.sty, rotating.sty; 2 tables and 6

Accurate Measurement of F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp
Results are presented for F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp from simultaneous measurements of
deep inelastic muon scattering on hydrogen and deuterium targets, at 90, 120,
200 and 280 GeV. The difference Rd-Rp, determined in the range 0.002<x<0.4 at
an average Q^2 of 5 GeV^2, is compatible with zero. The x and Q^2 dependence of
F2d/F2p was measured in the kinematic range 0.001<x<0.8 and 0.1<Q^2<145 GeV^2
with small statistical and systematic errors. For x>0.1 the ratio decreases
with Q^2.Comment: 29 pages, LateX, including figures, prepared with uufiles, arriving

A Re-Evaluation of the nuclear Structure Function Ratios for D, He, Li, C and Ca
We present a re-evaluation of the structure function ratios F2(He)/F2(D),
F2(C)/F2(D) and F2(Ca)/F2(D) measured in deep inelastic muon-nucleus scattering
at an incident muon momentum of 200 GeV. We also present the ratios
F2(C)/F2(Li), F2(Ca)/F2(Li) and F2(Ca)/F2(C) measured at 90 GeV. The results
are based on data already published by NMC; the main difference in the analysis
is a correction for the masses of the deuterium targets and an improvement in
the radiative corrections. The kinematic range covered is 0.0035 < x < 0.65,
0.5 < Q^2 <90 GeV^2 for the He/D, C/D and Ca/D data and 0.0085 < x < 0.6, 0.84
< Q^2 < 17 GeV^2 for the Li/C/Ca ones.Comment: 6 pages, Latex, 3 figures as uuencoded compressed tar file included

The Structure Function Ratios F2(Li)/F2(D) and F2(C)/F2(D) at small x
We present the structure function ratios F2(Li)/F2(D) and F2(C)/F2(D)
measured in deep inelastic muon-nucleus scattering at a nominal incident muon
energy of 200 GeV. The kinematic range 0.0001 < x < 0.7 and 0.01< Q^2 < 70
GeV^2 is covered. For values of less than both ratios indicate
saturation of shadowing at values compatible with photoabsorption results
Measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1(x) of the proton
Adams D, Adeva B, Arik E, et al. Measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1(x) of the proton. Phys.Lett. B. 1994;329(2-3):399-406.We have measured the spin-dependent structure function of the proton in deep inelastic scattering of polarized muons off polarized protons, in the kinematic range and 1\,\mbox{GeV}~2
. Its first moment, , is found to be 0.136 \pm 0.011\,(\mbox{stat.})\pm 0.011\,(\mbox{syst.}) at Q~2=10\,\mbox{GeV}~2. This value is smaller than the prediction of the Ellis--Jaffe sum rule by two standard deviations, and is consistent with previous measurements. A combined analysis of all available proton, deuteron and neutron data confirms the Bjorken sum rule to within of the theoretical value
Measurement of prompt hadron production ratios in collisions at 0.9 and 7 TeV
The charged-particle production ratios , , ,
, and are measured with the LHCb detector using of collisions delivered by the LHC at TeV and
at TeV. The measurements are performed as a
function of transverse momentum and pseudorapidity . The
production ratios are compared to the predictions of several Monte Carlo
generator settings, none of which are able to describe adequately all
observables. The ratio is also considered as a function of rapidity
loss, , and is used to constrain models of
baryon transport.Comment: Incorrect entries in Table 2 corrected. No consequences for rest of
