The variation with energy of the total cross section for elastic electron scattering from atoms of several elements is caused primarily by shape resonances corresponding to the formation of temporary negative ions. It is shown that such…
We study log corrections to inelastic scattering at high Bjorken x for Q^2 from 1 to 21 GeV^2. At issue is the presence of log corrections, which can be absent if high x scattering has damped gluon radiation. We find logarithmic correction…

[Background] The electromagnetic form factors of the proton measured by unpolarized and polarized electron scattering experiments show a significant disagreement that grows with the squared four momentum transfer ($Q^{2}$). Calculations…
We calculate polarization phenomena for virtual Compton scattering on protons, at relatively large momentum transfer 1 GeV$^2$ $\le -q^2\le$ 5 GeV$^2$ on the basis of a model for $\gamma^*+ p\to \gamma+p$ with two main contributions:…
We discuss effects of two-photon exchange (TPE) in various observables of the elastic ep-scattering. The imaginary part of the TPE amplitude manifests in target and beam normal spin asymmetries. The real part contributes to the…
The higher-order corrections become increasingly important with experiments reaching sub-percent level of uncertainty as they look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Our goal is to address the full set of two-loop electroweak…
We report the first measurement of the average of the electron-proton and positron-proton elastic scattering cross sections. This lepton charge-averaged cross section is insensitive to the leading effects of hard two-photon exchange, giving…
