Nuclear parton distributions and the Drell-Yan process

Abstract: We study the nuclear parton distribution functions on the basis of our recently developed semimicroscopic model, which takes into account a number of nuclear effects including nuclear shadowing, Fermi motion and nuclear binding, nuclear meson-exchange currents and off-shell corrections to bound nucleon distributions. We discuss in details the dependencies of nuclear effects on the type of parton distribution (nuclear sea vs. valence) as well as on the parton flavour (isospin).We apply the resulting nuclear par… Show more

“…This ratio offers a large cancellation of both experimental and theoretical uncertainties, including the nuclear corrections related to the Fetarget estimated employing the Kulagin-Petti (KP) model [37][38][39]. Indeed, a detailed calculation for the NOMAD kinematics taking into account the flavor dependence of the different PDFs [40] shows that the overall nuclear correction on the ratio R μμ is < 1%, which is much smaller than the corresponding experimental uncertainties in data, cf. Fig.…”
