Using the eikonal approximation, we show that inclusive gluon production is related to the scattering of a gluon-gluon dipole while diffractive gluon production in DIS is related to a two-$q\bar q$ dipole scattering amplitude. Hence…

The ZEUS and H1 collaborations have made the first direct measurements of the longitudinal proton structure function, FL, which is strongly correlated to the gluon density in the proton. The ZEUS collaboration have also extracted the…

ZEUS inclusive diffractive cross-section measurements have been used in a next-to-leading-order QCD analysis to extract the diffractive parton distribution functions. Data on diffractive dijet production in deep inelastic scattering have…

The proton structure function $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ is described in the framework of the off-shell extention of the Regge-eikonal approach which automatically takes into account off-shell unitarity. We achieved a good quality of description for…

In this work we study unpolarized spin $1/2$ baryonic deep inelastic scattering (DIS) in the regime of large Bjorken parameter $x$. We calculate the corresponding structure functions $F_{1,2}(x,q^2)$. Our approach is based on an AdS/QCD…

Parton distribution functions (DFs) have long been recognised as key measures of hadron structure. Today, theoretical prediction of such DFs is becoming possible using diverse methods for continuum and lattice analyses of strong interaction…

A brief review of the modern QCD theory of diffractive DIS is given. The recent progress has been remarkably rapid, all the principal predictions from the color dipole approach to diffraction - the $(Q^2+m_V^2)$ scaling, the pattern of…

We report our calculations on the logarithmic slope of the diffractive structure function F_2^D considering distinct approaches coming from both the pQCD and the Regge descriptions of diffractive DIS. Such a quantity is a potential…

We observe that the DGLAP evolution equations at NNLO analysis predicts a ratio of the structure functions in region of small Bjorken variable $x$. The ratio $F_{L}(x,Q^{2})/F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ is obtained and compared with the prediction of…

Neutron structure functions can be extracted from proton and deuteron data and a representation of the deuteron structure. This procedure does not require DIS approximations or quark structure assumptions. We find that the results depend…

This contribution presents recent ZEUS results on proton structure functions at HERA. The inclusive phi(1020)-meson cross section was measured, and it was used to determine the s-quark content of the proton. The structure function F_2 was…

We present an analysis of the heavy quark structure functions from the $k_{t}$ factorization scheme, using unifying the color dipole picture and double asymptotic scaling approaches at small $x$. The gluon distribution is obtained from the…

The QCD analysis of deep inelastic diffractive scattering is performed assuming the dominance of the "soft" pomeron exchange and simple, physically motivated parametrization of parton distributions in a pomeron. Results of the analysis are…

The charm quark structure function $F^c_2$ and the longitudinal structure function $F_l^p$ are directly sensitive to the gluon content of proton and therefore are crucial in understanding of proton structure function, in particular at low…

A comparison of the H1 data on the longitudinal structure function, $F_L$, at small $x$ with the predictions from the generalized vector dominance / color dipole picture (GVD/CDP) is presented. Using the set of parameters previously…

We analyse the data for the proton structure function $F_2$ over the entire $Q^2$ domain, including especially low $Q^2$, in terms of perturbative and non-perturbative QCD contributions. The small distance configurations are given by…

We provide compact formulas for the heavy quarks structure functions $F^{q\bar{q}}_{2}(x, Q^{2})$ and $F^{q\bar{q}}_{L}(x, Q^{2})$, with $q = c, b$ and $t$, in $e^{-}p$ interaction with respect to the behavior of the gluon density at the…

We study the dipole picture for the description of the deep inelastic scattering, focusing on the structure functions which are driven directly by the gluon distribution. One performs estimates using the effective dipole cross section given…

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…
