Gluon distribution at moderately low-x from NMC deuteron structure function data
نویسنده
چکیده
We present some simple methods to find gluon distribution from analysis of deuteron F2 structure function data at moderately lowx. Here we use the leading order(LO) Altarelli -Parisi(AP) evolution equation and New Muon Collaboration (NMC) deuteron F2 structure function data to extract gluon distribution. We also compare our results with those of other authors. PACS:12.38.-t; 12.38.Aw; 13.60.Hb

Structure Functions, the Gluon Density, and PQCD Tests
Measurements of the proton structure function F2 for 0:11 < Q 2 < 20000 GeV 2 and 1:2 10 5 < x < 0:65 from ZEUS 1994-1997 measurements are presented. From ZEUS 1994 and 1995 F2 data the slopes dF2=d lnQ 2 at xed x and d ln F2=d ln(1=x) for x < 0:01 at xed Q 2 are derived. For the latter E665 data are also used. The transition region in Q2 is explored using the simplest non-perturbative models a...
متن کاملExperimental constraints on coefficients of αS-expansion of Gottfried sum rule
The xand Q2-dependences of the Gottfried sum rule SG(x,Q 2) based on the experimental data on proton and deuteron structure functions are studied. The dependence of SG(x,Q 2) on Q2 for low x points to flavour asymmetry of sea quark distributions. For the first time, the coefficients c1, c2 of the expansion of SG(x,Q 2) in αS/π up to second order are evaluated through the phenomenological analys...
متن کاملQCD fits to ZEUS and fixed target structure function data
Preliminary results are presented on the gluon density at low x obtained from a QCD analysis of ZEUS 1994 F 2 structure function data combined with those from NMC. Also given are estimates of the experimental error on the e + p NC Born cross section at large x and Q 2. This estimate is obtained from propagation of the statistical and systematic errors on fixed target structure functions.
متن کاملFuture Precision Measurements of F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) , α S ( Q 2 ) and xg ( x , Q 2 ) at HERA
The results are presented of a study of the accuracy one may achieve at HERA in measuring the strong coupling constant αs and the gluon distribution xg(x,Q ) using future data of the structure function F2(x,Q ) which are estimated to be accurate at the few % level over the full accessible kinematic region down to x ≃ 10 and up to Q ≃ 50000 GeV. The analysis includes simulated proton and deutero...
متن کاملFrom RHIC to EIC: Nuclear Structure Functions
We study the nuclear structure function FA 2 and its logarithmic derivative in the high energy limit (small x region) using the Color Glass Condensate formalism. In this limit the structure function F2 depends on the quark anti-quark dipole-target scattering cross section NF (xbj , rt, bt). The same dipole cross section appears in single hadron and hadron-photon production cross sections in the...
