Abstract

The dynamical origins of the EMC effect are studied. We conclude that a swelling in size of a bound nucleon as well as nuclear binding plays an important rôle in determining the parton distributions within a bound nucleon. We find that the distortion of nucleon structure functions in nuclei can be simply explained with a few fundamental nuclear parameters.
