Radiative Correction Schemes in Deep Inelastic Muon Scattering
نویسندگان
چکیده
A description and a detailed comparison of the Mo and Tsai and the Dubna radiative correction schemes is presented. Numerical comparisons made in the kinematical region of the NMC high energy deep inelastic electroproduction experiment are discussed. An overall agreement between the two approaches in the region of low x and high y, where the radiative corrections are largest, is better than 2%.

متن کاملOverview of Physics at a Muon Collider * I Introduction
Muon colliders offer special opportunities to discover and study new physics. With the high intensity source of muons at the front end, orders of magnitude improvements would be realized in searches for rare muon processes, in deep inelastic muon and neutrino scattering experiments, and in long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. At a 100 to 500 GeV muon collider, neutral Higgs boson (or...

The one-loop electroweak radiative correction of the lowest order to lepton current for deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of longitudinally polarized leptons by polarized nucleons is obtained in model independent way. The detailed numerical analysis within kinematical requirements of future polarization collider experiments is performed. The possibility to reduce radiative effects by detection of...
متن کاملShadowing in neutrino deep inelastic scattering and the determination of the strange quark distribution
We discuss shadowing corrections to the structure function F2 in neutrino deep-inelastic scattering on heavy nuclear targets. In particular, we examine the role played by shadowing in the comparison of the structure functions F2 measured in neutrino and muon deep inelastic scattering. The importance of shadowing corrections in the determination of the strange quark distributions
متن کاملShadowing in deuterium.
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 the deuteron structure function is found to be < ∼ 1% at small x, but dependent on the model deuteron wavefunction. The resulting increase in the corrected neutron structure function is ∼ 1 − 2% for...
