We have calculated $\bar{MS}$ Wilson coefficients and anomalous dimensions for the non-singlet part of the structure function F_2 in the large-N_F limit. Our result agrees with exact two and three loop calculations and gives the leading N_F…
Following a previous study of the one-loop factorization of the nonsinglet $g_2$ structure function of the nucleon, we present in this paper the next-to-leading order coefficient functions in the singlet sector. To obtain the result, the…
We present the first calculation at next-to-leading order (NLO) in $\alpha_s$ of a fragmentation function into quarkonium whose form at leading order is a nontrivial function of $z$, namely the fragmentation function for a gluon into a…
We show that the diffractive structure function is perturbatively calculable in the domain where the diffractive mass is small but still outside the resonance region. In this domain, which can be characterized by Lambda^2/Q^2 << 1-beta <<…
We parametrize the small x, singlet component of the proton structure function F_2 by powers and logarithms of 1/x for discrete values of Q^2 between 0.2 and 2000 GeV^2, and compare these parametrizations by applying the criterion of…
We analyse LEP and PETRA data on single inclusive charged hadron cross-sections to establish new sets of Next-to-Leading order Fragmentation Functions. Data on hadro-production of large-$p_{\bot}$ hadrons are also used to constrain the…
We recently completed a calculation of the process $e^+e^- \to Q\bar{Q}+X$, where Q is a heavy quark, at order $O(\alpha_s^2)$. As a first application of this calculation we compute the momentum correlations of $b\bar{b}$ pairs at…
We present a fully analytic computation of the complete electron and photon structure functions, or QED lepton parton distribution functions (PDFs) up to two-loop order. Our computation is performed using modern techniques of reduction to…
We show that the all order summation of small x logarithms cannot be included in the Q^2 evolution of structure functions because the NLLx corrections overwhelm the LLx contribution.
We show that when screening corrections are included $\frac{\partial F_{2}(x,Q^{2})}{\partial ln(Q^{2}/Q_{0}^{2})}$ is consistent with the behaviour that one expects in pQCD. Screening corrections explain the enigma of the Caldwell plot.…
In this paper, by employing the $k_{T}$ factorization theorem, we calculate firstly the next-to-leading-order (NLO) twist-3 contributions to the pion electromagnetic form factors in the $\pi\gamma^* \to \pi$ process. From the analytical and…
The next to leading order (NLO) contribution of the generalized finite size mass shift formula for an interacting two stable particle system in a periodic $L^{3}$ box is discriminated with maintaining its model independent structure and…
We have calculated the n_f^2 and n_f^3 contributions to the flavour non-singlet structure functions F_2 and F_L in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering at the fourth order in the strong coupling alpha_s. The coefficient functions have been…
The formulas directly connecting parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs) at the next to leading order (NLO) QCD with the same quantities at the leading order (LO) are derived. These formulas are universal,…
We start from the two existing QCD evolution equations for structure functions, the BFKL and DGLAP equations, and discuss the theoretical hints for a unifying picture of the evolution in $x$ and $Q^2.$ The main difficulty is due to the…
The longitudinal structure function for nucleons and nuclei is considered at fixed $\sqrt{s}$ and $Q^2$ to the minimum value of $x$ given by $Q^2/s$. This is done using the expansion method and color dipole model in the next-to-leading…
We predict the effect of the charm structure function on the longitudinal structure function at small x. In NLO analysis we find that the hard Pomeron behavior gives a good description of $F_{L}$ and $F^{c}_{k}$ (k = 2,L) at small x values.…
We propose a phenomenological study of the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) approach applied to the data on the proton structure function $F_2$ measured at HERA in the small-$x_{Bj}$ region ($x_{Bj}<0.01$) and $Q^2$ in the range 5 to…
The next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD analysis of the experimental $xF_3$ structure function from CCFR data is performed. The theoretical uncertainties of the analysis are discussed.
