Abstract

Recently parity violating asymmetry (APV) in the Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) of polarized electrons (e→) from deuterons has been measured at JLab and there exist future plans to measure this asymmetry from nuclear targets. In view of this we study nuclear medium effects in APV in the DIS of e→ from some nuclear targets like 12C, 56Fe and 208Pb. The effects of Fermi motion, binding energy and nucleon correlations are taken into account through the nucleon spectral function calculated in a local density approximation for nuclei. The pion and rho cloud contributions have also been taken into account. This model has been earlier used to study nuclear medium effects in the electromagnetic and weak interaction induced processes. The results are presented and discussed in view of the future JLab experiments.
