Generalized parton distributions (GPDs) have become a standard QCD tool for analyzing and parametrizing the non perturbative parton structure of hadron targets. GPDs might be viewed as non-diagonal overlaps of light-cone wave functions and…
After the initial discovery of the so-called "spin crisis in the parton model" in the 1980's, a large set of polarization data in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering was collected at labs like SLAC, DESY and CERN. More recently, new…
Nucleon structure functions, as measured in deep-inelastic lepton scattering, are studied within a covariant scalar diquark spectator model. Regarding the nucleon as an approximate two-body bound state of a quark and diquark, the…

We present a model calculation of the generalized parton distributions where the nucleon is described by a quark core surrounded by a mesonic cloud. In the one-meson approximation, we expand the Fock state of the physical nucleon in a…

Equation for the sum of BFKL pomeron fan diagrams is rederived by direct summation and solved numerically for rapidities $y\leq 50$. At high rapidities y>20 the resulting cross-sections for the scattering of a longitudinally polarized…
