Accurate Measurement of F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp
Abstract
Results are presented for F2d/F2p and Rd-Rp from simultaneous measurements of deep inelastic muon scattering on hydrogen and deuterium targets, at 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. The difference Rd-Rp, determined in the range 0.002<x<0.4 at an average Q2 of 5 GeV2, is compatible with zero. The x and Q2 dependence of F2d/F2p was measured in the kinematic range 0.001<x<0.8 and 0.1<Q2<145 GeV2 with small statistical and systematic errors. For x>0.1 the ratio decreases with Q2.
