The drastic rise of the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) when the Bj\"orken variable x decreases, seen at HERA for a large span of Q^2, negative values for the 4-momentum transfer, may be damped when Q^2 increases beyond several…
Measurements of the proton and deuteron $F_2$ structure functions are presented. The data, taken at Jefferson Lab Hall C, span the four-momentum transfer range $0.06 < Q^2 < 2.8$ GeV$^2$, and Bjorken $x$ values from 0.009 to 0.45, thus…

We discuss how the proton structure function F2 is described in the HERA kinematic range by double asymptotic expressions for low x and large Q^2. From a NLO double asymptotic approximation of recent data from the H1 experiment at HERA we…

We constrain the amount of event-by-event fluctuations of the proton by comparing with the HERA coherent and incoherent diffractive $J/\Psi$ production data. We find that the HERA measurements prefer large geometric fluctuations. We then…
