A thermodynamical bag model is proposed to study the parton distribution functions and nucleon structure functions in the deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of leptons on nucleons. Equations of state for the thermodynamical bag are deduced and solved self-consistently. The theory explains all the observed features in DIS and gives a good fit to the experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
