| Abstract: | We present the perturbative QCD analysis of nuclear shadowing in deep inelastic scattering and prove it to be the scaling, rather than the higher twist, 1/Q2, effect, contrary to numerous recent claims. We argue in favor of the scaling triple-pomeron contribution to the nuclear shadowing and comment on the mass spectrum of diffraction excitation by highly virtual photons. Our numerical predictions for shadowing are in good agreement with the recent EMC data. |
