Abstract

Starting from a covariant relativistic formalism which uses nucleon and pion propagators in a nuclear medium, we revise the traditional effects of Fermi motion, binding and mesonic corrections to the EMC effect. The calculations are done in a very accurate way, using precise nucleon spectral functions and meson self-energies and a good reproduction of the EMC data is obtained outside the shadowing region which is not explored.
