Recent results from the E665 muon scattering experiment at Fermilab

OSTI ID:5008058
Recent results from the high energy muon scattering experiment, E665 at Fermilab are presented. In particular we discuss results on the ratio of cross-sections measured using Xenon and Deuterium at exceptionally low x{sub Bj}, the x{sub Bj} lower limit is approximately two orders of magnitude lower than any leptoproduction results previously reported. Neutron-proton ratio measurements are discussed in terms of the Gottfried Sum Rule and a measurement of the low x{sub Bj} contribution to the Gottfried Sum is presented. Forward fragmentation in muon scattering is compared to fragmentation as observed in other processes. Finally we discuss measurements of the rates of production of forward multi-jet topologies. 55 refs., 15 figs.
