Abstract
We present a QCD analysis of the strange and charm contributions to th e neutrino deep inelastic structure function xF(3). We show that next- to-leading order effects, which are relatively important for F-2, play a lesser role in the case of xF(3). The neutrino-antineutrino differe nce xF(3)(v) - xF(3)(v) provides a new determination of the strange de nsity, which exhibits some advantages with respect to other traditiona l methods.
