I present a full leading-order calculation of F_2(x,Q^2) and F_L(x,Q^2), including contributions not only from leading order in \alpha_s, but also from the leading power of \alpha_s for each order in ln(1/x). The calculation is ordered…
I investigate what a direct measurement of the longitudinal structure function F_L(x,Q^2) could teach us about the structure of the proton and the best way in which to use perturbative QCD for structure functions. I assume HERA running at a…
We present calculations of structure functions using a renormalization scheme consistent expansion which is leading order in both ln(1/x) and \alpha_s(Q^2). There is no factorization scheme dependence, and the ``physical anomalous…
We describe the determination of the DIS structure functions $F_{2}$ and $F_{L}$ by using the singlet Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi (DGLAP) and Altarelli-Martinelli equations at small values of $x$. The determination of the…
The gluon distribution is obtained from the Golec-Biernat-W$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$sthoff (GBW) and Bartels, Golec-Biernat and Kowalski (BGK) models at low $x$. We derive analytical results for the unintegrated color dipole gluon distribution…
A novel factorization formula is presented for the longitudinal structure function $F_L$ near the elastic region $x \to 1$ of deeply inelastic scattering. In moment space this formula can resum all contributions to $F_L$ that are of order…
We make a critical, next-to-leading order, study of the relationship between the longitudinal structure function FL and the gluon distribution proposed in Cooper- Sarkar et al. (Z. Phys. C 39:281, 1988; Acta Phys. Pol. B 34:2911 2003),…

We discuss the longitudinal structure function in nuclear DIS at small $x$. We work within the framework of universal parton densities obtained in DGLAP analyses at NLO. We show that the nuclear effects on the longitudinal structure…

The proposed linear and nonlinear behavior for the top structure function at the LHeC is considered. We present the conditions necessary to prediction the top structure function $F_{2}^{t}(x,Q^{2})$ with respect to the different predictions…
We present an extraction of the lowest three moments of the proton longitudinal structure function F_L from world data between Q^2 = 0.75 and 45 (GeV/c)^2. The availability of new F_L data at low Bjorken x from HERA and at large x from…
It is shown that the previously noted extreme perturbative NNLO/NLO instability of the longitudinal structure function F_L(x,Q^2) is a mere artefact of the commonly utilized `standard' gluon distributions. In particular it is demonstrated…
