Can presentF 2 andR=σ L /σ T data unravel power corrections?

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

We analyse the QCD non-singlet leading order prediction ofR=σ L /σ L using the results of the EMCF 2 fits to proton, deuterium and iron data and we examine in detail its compatibility withR from SLAC. Least squares fits to combined EMC and SLACF 2 andR proton data are carried out at leading order in the non-singlet case. Incompatibilities have been confirmed which, in spite of present uncertainties, require the consideration of power corrections.
