A fit is made to the data for the proton structure function up to Q^2=10 GeV^2, including the real gamma p total cross-section. It is economical and simple, and its form is motivated by physical principles. It is extrapolated down to very…
We observe that the DGLAP evolution equations at NNLO analysis predicts a ratio of the structure functions in region of small Bjorken variable $x$. The ratio $F_{L}(x,Q^{2})/F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ is obtained and compared with the prediction of…
An extraction of the longitudinal proton structure function FL(x,Q2) from H1 data at low Q2 (about 1 GeV2) and low Bjorken x (about 0.00005) is reported. The analysis is based on the data collected in a dedicated low Q2 running period in…
New results from the H1 and ZEUS collaborations on the measurement of cross-sections at very high Q^2 (up to 25000 GeV^2) and on the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) for momentum transfers squared Q^2 >= 1.5 GeV^2 and Bjorken x >= 3.5…
The neutron structure function F2n(x) is evaluated within the kinematic range 10**(-3)<x<1 from the deuteron and proton data by employing relativistic theoretical description of F2D(x) and several assumptions on the hihg-x asymptotics of…

The drastic rise of the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) when the Bj\"orken variable x decreases, seen at HERA for a large span of Q^2, negative values for the 4-momentum transfer, may be damped when Q^2 increases beyond several…
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…
The use of the differential gluon structure function of the proton ${\cal F}(x,Q^{2})$ introduced by Fadin, Kuraev and Lipatov in 1975 is called upon in many applications of small-x QCD. We report here the first determination of ${\cal…
We present an extraction of the lowest three moments of the proton longitudinal structure function F_L from world data between Q^2 = 0.75 and 45 (GeV/c)^2. The availability of new F_L data at low Bjorken x from HERA and at large x from…
The gluon contributions to $F_L(x,Q^2)$ in ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ are calculated taking into account the transverse momentum of the initial state parton. In comparison with collinear factorization $F_L(x,Q^2)$, is not affected at large $x$…
We present a QCD analysis of the proton structure function $F_2$ measured by the H1 experiment at HERA, combined with data from previous fixed target experiments. The gluon density is extracted from the scaling violations of $F_2$ in the…
The Q^2 dependence of inclusive electron-proton scattering F_2 structure function data in both the nucleon resonance region and the deep inelastic region, at momentum transfers below 5 (GeV/c)^2, is investigated. Moments of F_2 are…
$Q^2$ evolution of structure functions in the nucleon and nuclei is investigated by using usual DGLAP equations and parton-recombination equations. Calculated results for proton's $F_2$ and for the ratio $F_2^{Ca}/F_2^D$ are compared with…
Self-similarity based model of proton structure function at small \textit{x} was reported in the literature sometime back. The phenomenological validity of the model is in the kinematical region $ 6.2\, \times \, 10^{-7} \leq x \leq…
I investigate what a direct measurement of the longitudinal structure function F_L(x,Q^2) could teach us about the structure of the proton and the best way in which to use perturbative QCD for structure functions. I assume HERA running at a…
We compute the proton structure function F_2^p at small x and large Q^2 at next-to-leading order in alpha_s(Q^2), including summations of all leading and subleading logarithms of Q^2 and 1/x in a way consistent with momentum conservation.…
