Based on the world DIS data we extract the experimental F_2^p-F_2^n as a function of Bjorken-x and photon virtuality Q^2, using two different methods. Both methods lead to identical results. We find that the standard PDFs fail to describe…

$Q^2$ evolution of the structure functions $F_2$ in tin and carbon nuclei is investigated in order to understand recent NMC measurements. $F_2$ is evolved by using leading-order DGLAP, next-to-leading-order DGLAP, and parton-recombination…

Structure functions, as measured in lepton-nucleon scattering, have proven to be very useful in studying the quark dynamics within the nucleon. However, it is experimentally difficult to separately determine the longitudinal and transverse…

Spin-dependent parton distributions in the polarized virtual photon are investigated in QCD up to the next-to-leading order (NLO). In the case $\Lambda^2 \ll P^2 \ll Q^2$, where $-Q^2$ ($-P^2$) is the mass squared of the probe (target)…

The photon structure function is a useful testing ground for QCD. It is perturbatively computable apart from a contribution from what is usually called the hadronic component of the photon. There have been many proposals for this…
Low Q2 photon-proton cross sections are analysed using a simple, QCD-motivated parametrisation $\sigma_{\gamma^\star p}\propto 1/(Q^2+Q_0^2)$, which gives a good description of the data. The Q2 dependence of the gamma* p cross section is…
