Nuclear Dependence in Weak Structure Functions and the Determination of Weak Mixing Angle

Abstract

We have studied nuclear medium effects in the weak structure functions FA2(x) and FA3(x) and in the extraction of weak mixing angle using Paschos Wolfenstein(PW) relation. We have modified the PW relation for nonisoscalar nuclear target. We have incorporated the medium effects like Pauli blocking, Fermi motion, nuclear binding energy, nucleon correlations, pion \& rho cloud contributions, and shadowing and antishadowing effects.
