In particular, the nucleon plus momentum distribution and a finite system analog of the Hugenholtz-van Hove theorem are presented. Using a relativistic mean field model, numerical results for the plus momentum distribution and ratio of bound to free nucleon structure functions for Oxygen, Calcium and Lead are given. We show that we can incorporate light front physics with excellent accuracy while using easily computed equal time wavefunctions. Assuming nucleon structure is not modified in-medium we find that the calculations are not consistent with the binding effect apparent in the data not only in the magnitude of the effect, but in the dependence on the number of nucleons.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-02-05T22:09:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.80.-m", "13.60.-r", "25.30.Mr", "21.60.-n" ], "keywords": [ "finite nuclei", "emc effect", "incorporate light front physics", "free nucleon structure functions", "relativistic mean field model" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
