The structure function of the proton has been investigated and has been found to possess the power law behaviour in conformity with the empirical fits to the experimental findings. We have estimated F$_{2}$(x, Q$^{2}$)/F$_{2}$(x,…
The QCD corrections to photon structure functions are defined in a way consistent with the factorization scheme invariance. It is shown that the conventional DIS$_{\gamma}$ factorization scheme does not respect this invariance and is thus…

Factorization scheme analysis of $F_2^{\gamma}(x,Q^2)$ in the next-to-leading order QCD is revisited. It is emphasized that the presence of the inhomogeneous term in the evolution equations for quark distribution functions of the photon…
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…

We investigate structure functions in deep inelastic scattering processes (DIS) at Bj\"{o}rken limit and found that they are factorized into the longitudinal and transversal parts. We see that the longitudinal part can be linked to exact…
We report on some recent developments concerning parton-to-photon fragmentation functions. We briefly summarize the main theoretical concepts on which the currently available extractions of these fragmentation functions rely: evolution and…
