Nuclear Parton Densities and Structure Functions
We calculate nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs), using the constituent quark model. We find the bounded valon distributions in a nuclear to be related to free valon distributions in a nucleon. By using improved bounded valon distributions for a nuclear with atomic number $A$ and the partonic structure functions inside the valon, we can calculate the nuclear structure function in $x$ space. The results for nuclear structure-function ratio $F_2^A/F_2^D$ at some values of $A$ are in good agreement with the experimental data.
