Abstract
We present the structure function ratios F2He/F2D, F2C/F2D and F2Ca/F2D measured in deep inelastic muon-nucleus scattering at an incident muon momentum of 200 GeV. The kinematic range 0.0035<x<0.65 and 0.5<Q2<90 GeV2 is covered. At low x the three ratios are significantly smaller than unity and the size of the depletion grows with decreasing x and increasing mass number A. At intermediate x the ratios show an enhancement of about 2% above unity for C/D and Ca/D, possibly less for He/D. There are indications of some Q2 dependence in the Ca/D data. The integrals of the structure function differences F2A-F2D are discussed.
