Radiochemical Investigation of Unsaturation in Polystyrene Prepared by Cationic Mechanism
Unsaturation in 'cationic' polystyrene is of interest for two main reasons: because of its importance in providing some evidence about the polymerisation process, particularly the termination mechanism, and to help clarify the mechanism of degradation - particularly by providing information as to the presence of main chain unsaturation which might be associated with "weak links"
Nucleon and nuclear structure functions with non-perturbative and higher order perturbative QCD effects
We have studied the nucleon structure functions ,
by including contributions due to the higher order perturbative QCD effect up
to NNLO and the non-perturbative effects due to the kinematical and dynamical
higher twist (HT) effects. The numerical results for are
obtained using Martin, Motylinski, Harland-Lang, Thorne (MMHT) 2014 NLO and
NNLO nucleon parton distribution functions (PDFs). The dynamical HT correction
has been included following the renormalon approach as well as the
phenomenological approach and the kinematical HT effect is incorporated using
the works of Schienbein et al. These nucleon structure functions have been used
as an input to calculate the nuclear structure functions .
In a nucleus, the nuclear corrections arise because of the Fermi motion,
binding energy, nucleon correlations, mesonic contribution, shadowing and
antishadowing effects. These nuclear corrections are taken into account in the
numerical calculations to obtain the nuclear structure functions , for the various nuclear targets like , , ,
, , and which are of experimental
interest.
The effect of isoscalarity correction for nonisoscalar nuclear targets has
also been studied.
The results for the are compared with nCTEQ nuclear
PDFs parameterization as well as with the experimental results from JLab, SLAC
and NMC in the kinematic region of for several nuclei.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1705.0990
