A model for the longitudinal structure function $F_L$ at low $x$ and low $Q^2$ is presented, which includes the kinematical constraint $F_L \sim Q^4$ as $Q^2 \rightarrow 0$. It is based on the photon-gluon fusion mechanism suitably…
The proton structure function in the diffraction region of small Bjorken-$x$ and $10 {\rm GeV}^2 \le Q^2 \le 100 {\rm GeV}^2$ behaves as $F_2 (x, Q^2) = F_2 (W^2) = f_0 \cdot (W^2)^{C_2}$, where $x = Q^2 / W^2$. The exponent $C_2$ of the…

Nuclear modifications of the nucleon's structure function $F_2^N$ have been investigated mainly since the discovery of the EMC nuclear effect in 1983, and there were many experimental measurements from the deuteron to a heavy nucleus. Now,…
We calculate structure functions at small $x$ both under the assumption of a hard singularity (a power behaviour $x^{-\lambda}, \lambda$ positive, for $x\rightarrow 0$) or that of a soft-Pomeron dominated behaviour, also called double…
Numerous experimental and theoretical investigations have highlighted the power law behavior of the proton structure function $ F_2(x, Q^2) $, particularly the dependence of its power constant on various kinematic variables. In this study,…

We examine the $Q^2$ evolution of gluon polarization in polarized nucleons. As is well known, the evolution of $\alpha_s \Delta G(Q^2)$ is negligible for typical momentum transfer variations found in experimental deep inelastic scattering.…

Theoretical predictions show that at low values of Bjorken $x$ the spin structure function, $g_1$ is influenced by large logarithmic corrections, $ln^2(1/x)$, which may be predominant in this region. These corrections are also partially…
