Recent studies of the Q^2 dependence of ep scattering in the large x region and in the Q^2 range: 1 < Q^2 <leq 30 Gev^2, confirm the validity of the phenomenon of quark-hadron duality - the similarity of the deep inelastic (parton) and…
We investigate the implication of uncertainties in the unintegrated gluon distribution for the predictions for central exclusive production of scalars at hadron colliders. We use parameterizations of the kT-unintegrated gluon density…
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 semiclassical approach, successfully applied in the past to the inelastic, inclusive electron scattering off nuclei, is extended to the treatment of exclusive processes. The final states interaction is accounted for in the mean field…
The one-loop correction to heavy quark pair back-to-back production in unpolarized semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering is given in this work in the framework of transverse momentum dependent(TMD) factorization. Both unpolarized and…
Exclusive meson leptoproduction from nucleons in the deeply virtual exchanged boson limit can be described by generalized parton distributions (GPDs). Including spin dependence in the description requires 8 independent quark-parton and…
We show how deviations from the dimensional scaling laws for exclusive processes may be related to a breakdown in the locality of quark-hadron duality, i.e. the "restricted locality". For exclusive reactions like meson photo- and…
Recently, a semiclassical approach to diffraction has been proposed, which treats the proton as a classical colour field. The present paper demonstrates that this approach is consistent with the concept of diffractive parton distributions.…
Hard semiexclusive processes provide an opportunity to design effective currents to probe specific parton distributions and to probe in leading order parton distributions that fully inclusive reactions probe only via higher order…
We find that in "two-photon"-like processes in the scalar $\varphi^3_E$ model and also in hadron-pair production arising from the collisions of a real (transversely polarized) and a highly virtual, longitudinally polarized, photon in QCD,…
We identify conditions under which a summation over nucleon resonances can yield, via quark-hadron duality, parton model results for electromagnetic and neutrino structure functions at large x. While a summation over the lowest even and odd…
We consider some of the things that we understand about the theoretical underpinnings of duality, including items such as why the resonance peak/background ratio is constant in general, why it falls for the $\Delta(1232)$, what we might…
Exclusive diffractive processes on the nucleon are investigated within a model in which the quark-nucleon interaction is mediated by Pomeron exchange and the quark substructure of mesons is described within a framework based on the…
We discuss duality in ``two-photon''-like processes in the scalar $\varphi^3_E$ model and also in the process $\gamma^*\gamma\to\pi\pi$ in QCD. Duality implies the equivalence between two distinct nonperturbative mechanisms. These two…
Exclusive $\gamma\gamma \to$ hadron pairs are among the most fundamental processes in QCD, providing a detailed examination of Compton scattering in the crossed channel. In the high momentum transfer domain $(s,t, {large},\theta_{cm}$ for…
Off-diagonal parton distributions occur in several hard exclusive reactions. They extend the study of hadron structure beyond what can be learned from ordinary distributions and have a particularly rich spin structure. The hard scattering…
We study the semi-inclusive hadron production in deep inelastic scattering at small $x$. A transverse momentum dependent factorization is found consistent with the results calculated in the small-$x$ approaches, such as the color-dipole…
The diffractive production of open charm in deep-inelastic scattering is studied in the semiclassical approach which has been proposed recently. In this approach, the leading order process contains a charm quark pair and an additional gluon…
The fragmentation of an unpolarized quark into a transversely polarized spin-1/2 particle is studied in the framework of a simple model. Special attention is payed to the gluon exchange which is incorporated in the gauge link of the…
We analize semi-inclusive electron-nucleus processes e+A->e'+h+X at moderate Q**2 and energy transfer nu. Our results show that nucleons bound in the nuclear medium are distributed according to a function f_A that reduces to the standard…
