Relativistic Deuteron Structure Function at Large Q
نویسندگان
چکیده
The deuteron deep inelastic unpolarized structure function F 2 is calculated using the Wilson operator product expansion method. The long distance behaviour, related to the deuteron bound state properties, is evaluated using the Bethe–Salpeter equation with one particle on–mass–shell. The calculation of the ratio F 2 D/2F 2 N is compared with other convolution models showing important deviations in the region of large x. The implications in the evaluation of the neutron structure function from combined data on deuterons and protons are discussed.

متن کاملOn the relation between the Deuteron Form Factor at High Momentum Transfer and the High Energy Neutron-Proton Scattering Amplitude
We use non-relativistic dynamics to relate the deuteron form factor at high momentum transfer to the high energy neutron-proton scattering amplitude. This relation implies that an accurate computation of the form factors at large Q2 requires a simultaneous description of the lowest phase-shifts of the nucleon-nucleon elastic scattering at laboratory kinetic energy T ∼ Q/2mN . Computing these ph...

متن کاملThe nuclear binding and the EMC effect in the deuteron
Influence of the nuclear binding in the deuteron deep inelastic structure function F2(x,Q 2) is investigated. The description is based on the Bethe-Salpeter formalism in the ladder approximation and the operator product expansion within an effective mesonnucleon theory. It is shown that the binding in a fully relativistic treatment can be simply parametrised and its origin can be understood in ...
متن کاملDeuteron Electromagnetic Properties with a Poincaré-covariant Current Operator within Front-form Hamiltonian Dynamics
Deuteron elastic and deep inelastic electromagnetic properties have been studied within the front-form Hamiltonian dynamics, using a Poincaré-covariant current operator. The deuteron elastic form factors are strongly sensitive to different realistic N−N interactions, while the relevance of different nucleon form factor models is huge for A(Q), weak for B(Q) and negligible for the tensor polariz...
