In this paper, the proton structure function $F_2 ^p (x,Q^2)$ at small-$x$ is investigated using an analytical solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. In the context of the color dipole description of deep inelastic scattering…
The charm quark structure function $F^c_2$ and the longitudinal structure function $F_l^p$ are directly sensitive to the gluon content of proton and therefore are crucial in understanding of proton structure function, in particular at low…
A new measurement of the proton structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$ is reported for momentum transfers squared $Q^2$ between 1.5 GeV$^2$ and 5000 GeV$^2$ and for Bjorken $x$ between $3\cdot 10^{-5}$ and 0.32 using data collected by the HERA…
We use data on the deep inelastic structure function F_2 in order to constrain the cross-section for scattering a colour dipole off a proton. The data seem to prefer parameterisations which include saturation effects. That is they indicate…
We recently derived an explicit expression for the gluon distribution function G(x, Q^2) = xg(x, Q^2) in terms of the proton structure function F_2^{\gamma p} (x, Q^2) in leading-order (LO) QCD by solving the the LO DGLAP equation for the…

We parametrize the small x, singlet component of the proton structure function F_2 by powers and logarithms of 1/x for discrete values of Q^2 between 0.2 and 2000 GeV^2, and compare these parametrizations by applying the criterion of…
The light-front wave function of a proton composed of three quarks and a perturbative gluon is computed. This is then used to derive expressions for the color charge density correlator $\langle\rho^a(\vec q_1)\, \rho^b(\vec q_2)\rangle$ at…
We present parametrizations for the proton structure function $F_2$ in the next to leading order in perturbative QCD. The calculations show that the dominant term to $F_2(x,Q^2)$ should grow as $x^{-\ls}$ for small $x$ values, with the…

The proton diffractive structure function $F_2^{D(3)}$ measured in the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA is analyzed in terms of both Regge phenomenology and perturbative QCD evolution. A new method determines the values of the Regge…
The proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) for x < 0.01 and 0.045< Q^2 < 45 GeV^2, measured in the deep inelastic scattering at HERA, can be well described within the framework of the Color Glass Condensate.
Measurements of the proton structure function $F_2$ in the $Q^2$ range $0.6 - 17 \rm GeV^2$ from ZEUS 1995 shifted vertex data and $Q^2 \simeq 1.5 - 20000 \rm GeV^2$ from 1996 and 1997 ZEUS data are presented. From the former and other ZEUS…
We pursue the hypothesis that the events with a large rapidity gap, observed at HERA, reflect the scattering of electrons off lumps of wee partons inside the proton. A simple scaling behaviour is predicted for the diffractive structure…
Numerous experimental and theoretical investigations have highlighted the power law behavior of the proton structure function $ F_2(x, Q^2) $, particularly the dependence of its power constant on various kinematic variables. In this study,…

The QCD dipole picture allows to build an unified theoretical description -based on BFKL dynamics- of the total and diffractive nucleon structure functions. We use a four parameter fit to describe the 1994 H1 proton structure function F2…
The BFKL and the unified angular-ordered equations are solved to determine the gluon distribution at small $x$. The impact of kinematic constraints is investigated. Predictions are made for observables sensitive to the gluon at small $x$.…
