Abstract

We present a unified description of nuclear deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) over the whole region 0<xq¯q pairs with nucleons in the nucleus leads to shadowing at small x and discuss this effect in detail. In the large x region DIS takes place mainly on a single nucleon. There we focus on the derivation of the convolution model. We point out that the off-shell properties of the bound nucleon structure function give rise to sizable nuclear effects.
