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 $x$ less than $0.002$ both ratios indicate saturation of shadowing at values compatible with photoabsorption results

The Q(2) dependence of the structure function ratio F-2(Sn)/F-2(C) and the difference R(Sn)-R(C) in deep inelastic muon scattering

Arneodo M, Arvidson A, Badelek B, et al. The Q(2) dependence of the structure function ratio F-2(Sn)/F-2(C) and the difference R(Sn)-R(C) in deep inelastic muon scattering. Nucl.Phys. B. 1996;481(1-2):23-39.The Q(2) dependence of the structure function ratio F-2(Sn)/F-2(C) for 0.01 < x < 0.75 and 1 < Q(2) < 140 GeV2 is reported. For x < 0.1 the size of shadowing decreases linearly with In Q(2) and the maximum rate is about 0.04 at x = 0.01. The rate decreases with x and is compatible with zero for x greater than or equal to 0.1. The difference R(Sn) - R(C), where R is the ratio of longitudinally to transversely polarised virtual photon absorption cross sections, is also given. No dependence on x is seen and the average value is 0.040 +/- 0.021 (stat.) +/- 0.026 (syst.) at a mean Q(2) of 10 GeV2
