We derive relations between spin-dependent nuclear and nucleon g_1 and g_2 structure functions within the nuclear impulse approximation, which are valid at all Q^2, and in both the resonance and deep inelastic regions. We apply the…
Feynman amplitudes in perturbation theory form the basis for most predictions in particle collider experiments. The mathematical quantities which occur as amplitudes include values of the Riemann zeta function and relate to fundamental…
Using Laplace transform techniques, I calculate the longitudinal structure function $F_{L}(x,Q^{2})$ from the scaling violations of the proton structure function $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$, and make a critical study of this relationship between the…

Due to the lack of a free neutron target the structure function of the neutron cannot be measured directly and is therefore extracted from deuteron and proton DIS data. Because the deuteron is a bound nuclear system, in order to extract the…
Study of parton distribution functions (PDFs) has led to a finer cognisance of the structure of partons in hadrons and the proton structure functions in deep inelastic scattering (DIS). PDFs are instrumental in predicting results for most…
We show that two dimensional QCD can, to a good approximation, describe the hadronic structure functions measured in Deep Inelastic Scattering. We transform this theory into a new form, Quantum HadronDynamics (QHD), whose semi-classical…
