It has been assumed that nuclear modification does not exist in the longitudinal-transverse structure-function ratio $R_N=F_L^N/(2xF_1^N)$ in lepton deep inelastic scattering. This assumption is widely used in obtaining structure functions…

Self-similarity based model of proton structure function at small \textit{x} was reported in the literature sometime back. The phenomenological validity of the model is in the kinematical region $ 6.2\, \times \, 10^{-7} \leq x \leq…
We present a set of formulas to extract the ratio $F_{L}(x,Q^{2})/F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ and $R(x,Q^{2})$ from the proton structure function parameterized in the next-to-next-to-leading order of the perturbative theory at low $x$ values. The…

We extend the results of Lappi {\em et al.}, Eur.~Phys.~J.~C {\bf 84}, 84 (2024), to show that it is possible to obtain expressions for the longitudinal, singlet and gluon structure functions $F_L$, $F_S$ and $G$ in deep inelastic…

Nuclear modifications of the nucleon's structure function $F_2^N$ have been investigated mainly since the discovery of the EMC nuclear effect in 1983, and there were many experimental measurements from the deuteron to a heavy nucleus. Now,…
A first measurement is reported of the longitudinal proton structure function F_L(x,Q^2) at the ep collider HERA. It is based on inclusive deep inelastic e^+p scattering cross section measurements with a positron beam energy of 27.5 GeV and…
A model for the longitudinal structure function $F_L$ at low $x$ and low $Q^2$ is presented, which includes the kinematical constraint $F_L \sim Q^4$ as $Q^2 \rightarrow 0$. It is based on the photon-gluon fusion mechanism suitably…
It is well known that there are persistent statistical tensions with the standard model in the low Q2 HERA deep inelastic scattering neutral current data characterized by a turn-over of F2(x, Q2) at low x and low Q2. One important…
I investigate what a direct measurement of the longitudinal structure function F_L(x,Q^2) could teach us about the structure of the proton and the best way in which to use perturbative QCD for structure functions. I assume HERA running at a…
The longitudinal proton structure function (FL) has been measured at the HERA collider in positron-proton deep inelastic scattering collisions with the H1 and ZEUS detectors. This measurement is achieved by using multiple center-of-mass…
