Abstract
This paper presents our first measurement of the F2 structure function in neutral-current, deep inelastic scattering using the ZEUS detector at HERA, the ep colliding beam facility at DESY. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 24.7 nb-1. Results are presented for data in range of Q2 from 10 GeV2 to 4700 GeV2 and Bjorken x down to 3.0 × 10-4. The F2 structure function increases rapidly as x decreases. © 1993.
