Abstract: (APS)
This is the last in a series of four papers devoted to a theoretical study based on canonical field theory of the deep-inelastic lepton processes. In the present paper we present the detailed calculations leading to the limiting behavior—or the "parton model"—for deep-inelastic neutrino scattering, i.e., ν+p→e−+anything,'' ν¯+p→e++anything,'' where "anything" refers to all possible hadrons. In particular, we show that the structure functions depend only on the ratio of energy to momentum transfer 2Mνq2 as conjectured by Bjorken on general grounds. Experimental implications, including sum rules and the relation of ν and ν¯ cross sections to each other as well as to deep-inelastic electron scattering cross sections, are derived and discussed.References(17)
