Current non-conservation effects in νDIS diffraction

In the neutrino DIS diffraction the charged current non-conservation gives rise to sizable corrections to the longitudinal structure function, $F_L$. These corrections is a higher twist effect enhanced at small-$x$ by the rapidly growing gluon density. The phenomenon manifests itself in abundant production of charm and strangeness by longitudinally polarized W bosons of moderate virtualities $Q^2\lsim m_c^2$.
