We use the covariant current formalism to derive the general form of the 2-photon correlation function for fully chaotic sources. Motivated by the recent discussion in the literature we concentrate on the effects from the photon spin on the…
The impact of the recent very precise CLAS and COMPASS g_1/F_1 data on polarized parton densities and higher twist effects is discussed. We demonstrate that the low Q^2 CLAS data improve essentially our knowledge of higher twist corrections…
The explicit expressions describing the structure function g_1 at arbitrary x and Q^2 are obtained. In the first place, they combine the well-known DGLAP expressions for g_1 with the total resummation of leading logarithms of x, which makes…
The higher twist corrections $h^N(x)/Q^2$ to the spin dependent proton and neutron $g_1$ structure functions are extracted from the world data on $g_1(x,Q^2)$ in a model independent way and found to be non-negligible. Their role in…
The spin structure function $g_1^p$ of the proton is studied in a two component framework, where the perturbative evolution of parton distributions and nonperturbative vector meson dominance model are used. We predict the $g_1^p$ asymmetric…
We consider the exclusive photoproduction of a $\pi^0 \gamma$ pair with large invariant mass, as a promising channel to study the effects of gluon saturation. It has recently been demonstrated that this process is incompatible with a…

We recall our recent description of quark parton densities of the proton at $Q^2=4 GeV^2$ in terms of Fermi-Dirac distributions parametrized with very few free parameters. We have also proposed some simple assumptions to relate unpolarized…
We calculate the contribution from the $q\bar{q}g$ component of a virtual photon state to the small-$x$ diffractive cross section in deep inelastic scattering in the saturation regime. The obtained cross section is finite by itself and a…
It is shown that by assuming Gribov factorization to hold at low $x$ one obtains a simple relation between the structure function of the proton and that of the photon. By interpreting an observed structure in deep inelastic scattering (DIS)…
Starting from the Luttinger model for the band structure of GaAs, we derive an effective theory that describes the coupling of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) system with photons in resonant Raman scattering experiments. Our theory is…
We present a detailed derivation of the two sum rules relating the spin polarizabilities measured in real, virtual, and doubly-virtual Compton scattering. For example, the polarizability $\delta_{LT}$, accessed in inclusive electron…
The spin-dependent structure functions $g_1(x)$, $g_2(x)$, ${g}_2^{WW}(x)$ and ${\bar g}_2(x)$ and their moments are studied in the CM bag model. The results show that (i) $\int_0^1g_2(x)dx=0$, i.e. the Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule holds,…
Transition form factors $F_{P\gamma^*\gamma^{(*)}}$ of pseudoscalar mesons are studied within the framework of the domain model of confinement, chiral symmetry breaking and hadronization. In this model, the QCD vacuum is described by the…
We show that the experimental data for the total virtual-photon proton cross section, \sigma_{\gamma^*p} (W^2, Q^2), for x_{bj} \lsim 0.1 lie on a universal curve, when plotted against \eta = (Q^2 + m^2_0)/ \Lambda^2(W^2), where \Lambda^2…
Low Q2 photon-proton cross sections are analysed using a simple, QCD-motivated parametrisation $\sigma_{\gamma^\star p}\propto 1/(Q^2+Q_0^2)$, which gives a good description of the data. The Q2 dependence of the gamma* p cross section is…
In the present paper we summarize our results on the structure function g_1 and present explicit expressions for the non-singlet and singlet components of g_1 which can be used at arbitrary x and Q^2. These expressions combine the…
