The higher twist contributions to the deeply inelastic structure functions $F_2^{p}(x,Q^2)$ and $F_2^{d}(x,Q^2)$ for larger values of the Bjorken variable $x$ are extracted extrapolating the {twist--2} contributions measured in the large…

The status of the twist--2 and the twist--3 integral relations between polarized structure functions in deep inelastic scattering for electromagnetic and electroweak interactions is reviewed. One novel integral relation for the twist--3…
We investigate polarized deuteron structure functions at small values of the Bjorken variable, x < 0.1. In this region contributions from the coherent interaction of diffractively excited hadronic states with both nucleons become important.…

We present a method for the analytic solution of small $x$ structure functions. The essential small $x$ logarithms are summed to all orders in the anomalous dimensions and coefficient functions. Although we work at leading logarithmic…
In this talk I present a review on the theoretical status of polarized fragmentation functions and the prospects for conceivable future semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering and proton-proton collision experiments to measure them.
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour via Gamma-convergence of some integral functionals which model some multi-dimensional structures and depend explicitly on the linearized strain tensor. The functionals are defined in…
The proton structure function is re-deduced from the data of deep inelastic electron-proton scattering after enhanced correction that is made due to the multiple scattering effect. The Glauber approach is used to account for the multiple…
Deep inelastic scattering at small x can be described very effectively using saturation inspired dipole models. We investigate whether such models are compatible with the numerical solutions of the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation which is…
We review the present status of polarized structure functions measured in deep-inelastic scattering. We discuss the x and Q^2 dependence of the structure function g_1, and how it can be used to test perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order…
We construct small-x evolution equations which can be used to calculate quark and anti-quark helicity TMDs and PDFs, along with the $g_1$ structure function. These evolution equations resum powers of $\alpha_s \, \ln^2 (1/x)$ in the…
A novel approach to parton distributions parameterization in terms of quantum statistical functions is here outlined. The description, already proposed in previous publications, is here improved by adding to the statistical distributions an…
Important corrections to BFKL evolution are obtained from non-leading contributions and from non-linear effects due to unitarisation or saturation. It has been difficult to estimate the relative importance of these effects, as NLO effects…
We present a detailed analysis of the uncertainty in the neutron F2n structure function extracted from inclusive deuteron and proton deep-inelastic scattering data. The analysis includes experimental uncertainties as well as uncertainties…
Recent data on the proton F_2 structure function in the resonance region suggest that local quark-hadron duality works remarkably well for each of the low-lying resonances, including the elastic, to rather low values of Q^2. We derive…
Nonsinglet structure function g_2(x) for deep inelastic scattering of a lepton on a constituent quark is calculated in the double logarithmic approximation at x<<1. Small-x asymptotics of g_2 is shown to have the same singular behaviour as…
