Parton distribution functions and nuclear EMC effect in a statistical model

A new and simple statistical approach is performed to calculate the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the nucleon in terms of light-front kinematic variables.Analytic expressions of x-dependent PDFs are obtained in the whole x region.And thereafter,we treat the temperature T as a parameter of...

Description
Summary:A new and simple statistical approach is performed to calculate the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the nucleon in terms of light-front kinematic variables.Analytic expressions of x-dependent PDFs are obtained in the whole x region.And thereafter,we treat the temperature T as a parameter of the atomic number A to explain the nuclear EMC effect in the region x ∈ [0.2,0.7].We give the predictions of PDF ratios,and they are very different from those by other models,thus experiments aiming at measuring PDF ratios are suggested to provide a discrimination of different models.
