We consider a system of evolution equations for quark and gluon structure functions satisfying the leading-logarithmic behaviour due to both QCD collinear $ \left(LLQ^2 \right) $ and infrared $ (LL1/x) $ singularities. We show that these…
We describe the determination of the longitudinal structure function $F_{L}$ at NLO and NNLO approximations, using Laplace transform techniques, into the parametrization of $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ and its derivative with respect to $\ln{Q^{2}}$ at…
We show that when Bjorken $x_B$ is large, the leading order twist-four contributions to the structure functions can be expressed in terms of the derivatives of the normal twist-two parton distributions. Our analytical results are not only…

The HERA data on the proton structure function, $F_2(x,Q^2)$, at very small $x$ and $Q^2$ show the dramatic departure of the logarithmic slope, $\partial F_2/\partial\log Q^2$, from theoretical predictions based on the DGLAP evolution. We…
Nonsinglet contributions to the $g_1(x,Q^2)$ structure function are calculated in the double-logarithmic approximation of perturbative QCD in the region $x \ll 1$. Double logarithmic contributions of the type $(\alpha_s \ln ^2 (1/x))^k$…
Fragmentation functions are determined for pions, kaons, and nucleons by a global analysis of charged-hadron production data in electron-positron annihilation. The optimum functions are obtained in both leading order (LO) and…

A unified equation for the non-singlet spin dependent structure function $g_1^{ns}(x,Q^2)$ which incorporates the complete leading order Altarelli-Parisi evolution at finite $x$ and double logarithmic $ ln^2(1/x)$ effects at $x \to 0$ is…
