Nuclear deep inelastic scattering is considered in the framework of a model in which the current operator explicitly satisfies Poincare invariance and current conservation. The results considerably differ from the standard ones at small…
Recently, there have been some interesting developments involving off-forward parton distributions of the nucleon, deeply virtual Compton scattering, and hard diffractive vector-meson production. These developments are triggered by the…

The diffractive production of vector mesons in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) is calculated in the McLerran-Venugopalan model. This is relevant when large parton densities are probed by the virtual photon, as is the case at small Bjorken x…
Dijet production in deep inelastic ep scattering is investigated in the region of low values of the Bjorken-variable x (10^-4 < x < 10^-2) and low photon virtualities Q^2 (5 < Q^2 < 100 GeV^2). The measured dijet cross sections are compared…

The concept of studying the internal structure of mesons is explored. Mesons, which are in principle two body quark antiquark interactions, may be much easier to understand than the nucleon. Measurements of the inelastic form factors to…
We use gauge/gravity duality to study vector meson (J/{\Psi}, {\rho}_0, {\Omega}, {\Phi}) production in electron-proton scattering, in the limit of high center of mass energy at fixed momentum transfer, corresponding to the limit of low…

The energy dependence of the cross section for exclusive electroproduction of vector mesons is discussed as a way to learn about the interplay of soft and hard interactions. The question of determining the scale of these processes is…
Coupled solitary waves in optics literature, are coined vector solitons to reflect their particle-like nature that remains intact even after mutual collisions. They are born from a nonlinear change in the refractive index of an optical…
