We study inclusive electroproduction on the proton at low $x$ and low $Q^2$ using a soft and a hard Pomeron. The contribution of the soft Pomeron is based on the Stochastic Vacuum Model, in which a nonperturbative dipole-dipole cross…
Results on the derivative of log(F_2) with respect to log(x) at fixed Q^2 are presented. The measured derivatives are within errors independent of x for Q^2 >= 0.85 GeV^2 and increase linearly with log(Q^2) for 0.0001 <= x <= 0.01 and Q^2…

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 proton diffractive structure function $F_2^{D(3)}$ measured in the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA is analyzed in terms of both Regge phenomenology and perturbative QCD evolution. A new method determines the values of the Regge…
