The target mass corrections to the twist-2 contributions of the spin-dependent structure functions are calculated using operator product expansion in lowest order in QCD. The influence of such corrections to the different relations between…
The CTEQ and MRS parton distributions involve a substantial number (~30) of parameters that are fit to a large number (~900) of data. Typically, these groups produce fits that represent a good fit to the data, but there is no substantial…

When aiming at the percent precision in hadronic quantities calculated by means of lattice simulations, isospin breaking effects become relevant. These are of two kinds: up/down mass splitting and electromagnetic corrections. In order to…
In perturbative QCD, the masses of the hadrons involved in high energy reactions can usually be neglected. However, in the case of Kaon production in electron-proton collisions at low (and not so low) beam energies this may not be a good…
On the basis of the target mass corrections to structure functions of deep-inelastic scattering of leptons, we evaluate effective nucleon mass that turns out to be twice $M_{nucl.}$ for deep-inelastic scattering on the nucleus target and…

Perturbative expansions for short-distance quantities in QCD are factorially divergent and this deficiency can be turned into a useful tool to investigate nonperturbative corrections. In this work, we use this approach to study the…
