The data are compared to theoretical models based on the impulse approximation with inclusion of meson-exchange currents, and to predictions of quark dimensional scaling and perturbative quantum chromodynamicsSubmitted to Physical Review LettersNuclear ExperimentHigh Energy Physics - Experimenttext
