Shallow to deep inelastic scattering
Talk
Current global fits used to determine parton distribution functions (PDFs) are typically limited to the region of x below about 0.7. In order to extend the range of such fits one, encounters kinematic regions where target mass corrections and higher twist contributions become relevant. Furthermore, Fermi motion corrections for deuterium targets also become significant in this region. I will...

Shallow to deep inelastic scattering
Talk
In this talk we briefly review both recent and upcoming experimental studies of nucleon structure functions at large Bjorken-x. In particular, preliminary results on the (nearly) free neutron F_2 structure function measured by the BoNuS experiment performed in Hall B at JLab will be discussed, as well as the approved extension of these measurements to even higher Bjorken-x and Q^2 utilizing...

I will review nuclear effects on neutrino-nucleus deeply inelastic scattering (DIS) and discuss the nuclear parton distributions functions (NPDFs). Due to the weak interaction, heavy nuclear target is needed to get high accuracy of the measurements. The nuclear effects on the structure function must be taken into account. These effects are already known by charged lepton-nucleus DIS...
