Abstract
The deep-inelastic scattering reaction ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}$N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$X has been studied using the deuterium-filled 15-foot bubble chamber at Fermilab. The data have been analyzed under the assumption of isospin invariance to extract x(${u}_{V}$-${d}_{V}$) for the proton, where ${\mathrm{xu}}_{V}$(x) and ${\mathrm{xd}}_{V}$(x) are the valence up- and down-quark momentum distributions, respectively. The results are compared with other data and with different theoretical fits. The ratio \ensuremath{\nu}n/\ensuremath{\nu}p as a function of x is also presented.
