The data on the diffractive deep inelastic scattering (DDIS) at HERA exhibit a strong excess, up to about 100%, above the twist-two NLO DGLAP description at low $Q^2$ and at large energy. I show, that complementing the DGLAP fit by twist 4…

In these lectures, a simple introduction to the phenomenon of diffraction in deep inelastic scattering and its theoretical description is given. While the main focus is on the diffractive structure function F_2^D, some issues in diffractive…
We argue that the difference between the structure functions corresponding to deep inelastic scattering with and without heavy quarks in the current fragmentation region scales at high $Q^2$ and fixed (low) $x_{Bj}$. The lower bound on…
