Accurate Measurement of F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp
read the original abstract
Results are presented for F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp from simultaneous measurements of deep inelastic muon scattering on hydrogen and deuterium targets, at 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. The difference Rd-Rp, determined in the range 0.002<x<0.4 at an average Q^2 of 5 GeV^2, is compatible with zero. The x and Q^2 dependence of F2d/F2p was measured in the kinematic range 0.001<x<0.8 and 0.1<Q^2<145 GeV^2 with small statistical and systematic errors. For x>0.1 the ratio decreases with Q^2.

Stability of parton distributions at high $x$: impact of nuclear and power corrections
Global fit finds u and d PDFs stable to x≈0.8 with positive isospin-independent higher-twist corrections and nonzero off-shell nucleon contributions required to describe nuclear data.
