We analyse forward-jet production at HERA in the framework of the Golec-Biernat and Wusthoff saturation models. We obtain a good description of the forward jet cross sections measured by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations in the two-hard-scale…
The production of $J/\psi$-pairs as a possible measure of the polarized gluon distribution $\Delta G(x)$ is studied for proton--nucleon collisions at $\sqrt{s} =40\;\mbox{GeV}^2$ (HERA-$\vec{{\rm N}}$). Possibilities of reconstructing the…

We describe the hard leptoproduction of transversally polarized rho-meson, up to twist 3 accuracy, including 2- and 3- particles Fock-states, in the HERA kinematics of high center-of-mass energy. We first build a model based on a simple…
In this paper we check the validity of the ideas of double scaling as given by Ball and Forte in a semi inclusive process like $J/\psi$ production at HERA, in different kinematical regions, for low values of the Bjorken variable $x$. In…
The measurement of the polarized gluon distribution function $\Delta g(x)$ from photon gluon fusion processes in electron proton deep inelastic scattering producing two jets has been investigated. The study is based on the MEPJET simulation…

The results are presented of a study of the accuracy one may achieve at HERA in measuring the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ and the gluon distribution $xg(x,Q^{2})$ using future data of the structure function $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ which…
We present a QCD analysis of the proton structure function $F_2$ measured by the H1 experiment at HERA, combined with data from previous fixed target experiments. The gluon density is extracted from the scaling violations of $F_2$ in the…
Results from the HERA experiments, H1 and ZEUS, on $e^\pm p$ deep inelastic scattering (DIS) provide an important contribution to the knowledge of the proton structure and QCD. The data were collected in the years 1994-2000 (HERA I) and…
The $e^{+}p$ and $e^{-}p$ scattering data recorded at HERA during the recent years offer the possibility to study electroweak effects in $ep$ interactions apparent at high momentum transfers, $Q^{2}$, and to reveal information on the proton…
Using a recently proposed factorization hypothesis for semi-inclusive hard processes in QCD, one can study, in principle, the diffractive production of the Standard Model Higgs boson at LHC using only, as input, $ep$ diffractive…
Exclusive J/psi production, gamma* p -> J/psi p, offers a unique opportunity to determine the gluon density of the proton in the small x domain. We use the available HERA data to determine the gluon distribution in the region 10^{-4} <~ x…
HERA $ep$ collider provides unique information on the proton structure. High center of mass energy $s=320$ GeV gives access to both the low Bjorken-$x$ domain and regime of high momentum transfers $Q$. Recently the H1 collaboration reported…
We present here some arguments to support our suggestion that data on the helicity structure for the hard exclusive electroproduction of $\rho$ mesons at HERA (and in possible future high-energy electron-proton colliders) provide useful…
The effects of the first nonlinear corrections to the DGLAP equations are studied in light of the HERA data. Saturation limits are determined in the DGLAP+GLRMQ approach for the free proton and for the Pb nucleus.
HERA data on diffractive DIS show deviations from twist 2 DGLAP predictions below $Q^2\sim 5$ GeV$^2$ at low pomeron $\xi$, which may reach up to 100%. These deviations are consistent with higher twists effects extracted from the saturation…
