We study twist expansions for parton fragmentation functions based on the definition of the twist as an invariant matrix element of a light-cone, bilocal operator. The results are then applied to a method which might be used to extract…
We calculate the O($\eps$)--term of the two--loop massive operator matrix elements for twist 2--operators, which contribute to the heavy flavour Wilson coefficients in unpolarized deep--inelastic scattering in the asymptotic limit $Q^2 \gg…
We report results of a new global next-to-leading order fit of parton distribution functions in which cuts on W and Q are relaxed, thereby including more data at high values of x. Effects of target mass corrections (TMCs), higher twist…
We develop a general theoretical framework for the description of higher-twist baryon operators which makes maximal use of the conformal symmetry of the QCD Lagrangian. The conformal operator basis is constructed for all twists. The…
Higher twist effects in the deeply inelastic scattering are studied. We start with a short review of the theoretical results on higher twists in QCD. Within the saturation model we perform a twist analysis of the nucleon structure functions…
We shown the general approach for Q2 evolution of parton densities and fragmentation functions at low x based on the diagonalization. The diagonalization leads to the two components in the Q2 evolution, each of which contains a…
We review several recent developments in the theory and phenomenology of deep-inelastic scattering, with particular emphasis on precision tests of QCD and progress in the detailed perturbative treatment of structure functions and parton…
By introducing Q^2-dependence in resonance-reggeon "soft" dual models with nonlinear trajectories, they are extended to "hard" processes, sharing the property of parton-hadron duality. The resulting object is a two-component complex…
The higher twist contributions to the deeply inelastic structure functions $F_2^{p}(x,Q^2)$ and $F_2^{d}(x,Q^2)$ for larger values of the Bjorken variable $x$ are extracted extrapolating the {twist--2} contributions measured in the large…
We report on a recent extraction of the higher twist contributions to the deep inelastic structure functions $F_2^{ep,ed}(x,Q^2)$ in the large $x$ region. It is shown that the size of the extracted higher twist contributions is strongly…
Evolution of the parton densities at NLO in $\alpha_S$ using $\tilde W^2 = Q^2 (1-z)/z$ instead of the usual $Q^2$ for the scale of the running coupling $\alpha_S$ is investigated. While this renormalisation scale change was originally…
Nuclear parton distributions are studied in a parton model with rescaling and recombination mechanisms. Parton x distributions are first calculated at Q^2=1 GeV^2 by the model, and they are evolved to larger Q^2 in order to be compared with…
We calculate the quarkonic $O(\alpha_s^2)$ massive operator matrix elements $\Delta A_{Qg}(N), \Delta A_{Qq}^{\rm PS}(N)$ and $\Delta A_{qq,Q}^{\rm NS}(N)$ for the twist--2 operators and the associated heavy flavor Wilson coefficients in…
A genuinely non-perturbative evaluation of higher-twist contributions to the structure functions of the nucleon, with all mixing effects and renormalon ambiguities taken care of, is presented. Higher-twist corrections turn out to be…
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 differences are discussed between various next-to-leading order prescriptions for the QCD evolution of parton densities and structure functions. Their quantitative impact is understood to an accuracy of 0.02\%. The uncertainties due to…
Dynamical parton densities, generated radiatively from valence-like inputs at some low resolution scale, are confronted with recent small-x data on deep inelastic and other hard scattering processes. It is shown that within theoretical…
We explore the possibility to construct higher-twist parton distributions in a nucleon at some low reference scale from convolution integrals of the light-cone wave functions (WFs). To this end we introduce simple models for the…
The paper presents the $QCD$ description of the hard and semihard processes in the framework of the Wilson operator product expansion. The smooth transition between the cases of the soft and hard Pomerons is obtained.
We perform an exploratory study of higher twist contributions to deep inelastic scattering. We estimate the size of two major sources of higher twist, namely absorptive corrections and the vector meson dominance (VMD) contribution. We find…
