We report on the extraction of the structure functions F-2 and Delta xF(3) = xF(3-)(nu) xF(3)(<()over bar>) from CCFR nu (mu)-Fe and <()over bar>mu -Fe differential cross sections. The extraction is performed in a physics model independent (PMI) way. This first measurement for Delta xF(3), which is useful in testing models of heavy charm production, is higher than current theoretical predictions. The F-2 (PMI) values measured in nu (mu) and mu scattering are in good agreement with the predictions of Next to Leading Order PDFs (using massive charm production schemes), thus resolving the long-standing discrepancy between the two sets of data.
