We present theoretical and experimental considerations pertaining to deeply inelastic heavy-flavour production at HERA. The various theoretical uncertainties in the cross section calculation are discussed. Cuts are imposed to determine the…

We develop the color dipole gBFKL phenomenology of a diffraction cone for photo- and electroproduction $\gamma^{*}N \to VN$ of heavy vector mesons (charmonium & bottonium) at HERA and in fixed target experiments. We predict a substantial…

We present calculations of the beauty photoproduction at HERA collider in the framework of the kt-factorization approach. Both direct and resolved photon contributions are taken into account. The unintegrated gluon densities in a proton and…

We develop the pQCD description of diffraction excitation of heavy flavours in DIS and we derive the analytic formulas for the mass spectrum in leading log$m_f^{2}$. The result illustrates nicely non-factorization properties of the QCD…

We analyze the Callan-Gross ratio $R(x,Q^2)=F_L/F_T$ in heavy-quark leptoproduction as a probe of the charm content of the proton. To estimate the charm-initiated contributions, we use the ACOT($\chi$) variable-flavor-number scheme. Our…

Large preasymptotic effects in beauty decays have been found using heavy-quark and SU(3) symmetry, as well as experimental data on charmed hyperons. Contrary to rather uniform beauty-meson lifetimes, a much larger spread of beauty-baryon…

The $S$-matrix of diffractive scattering is diagonalized in terms of the colour dipole-dipole cross section. Recently, we have shown that the dipole cross section satisfies the generalized BFKL equation. In this paper we discuss the…

Both total and diffractive cross sections from HERA are successfully confronted with JIMWLK evolution equations in the asymptotic pseudo-scaling region. We present a consistent, simultaneous description of both types of cross sections that…

We study the structure functions $F_{k}^{b}(x,Q^{2})$ ($k=2, L$) and the reduced cross section $\sigma_{r}^{b}(x,Q^{2})$ for small values of Bjorken$^{,}$s $x$ variable with respect to the hard (Lipatov) pomeron for the gluon distribution…

We present a global analysis of available data on inclusive structure functions and reduced cross sections measured in electron-proton scattering at small values of Bjorken-x, x<0.01, including the latest data from HERA on reduced cross…

We present description of the DIS structure functions F_1 and F_2 at small $x$ obtained in double-logarithmic approximation (DLA). First we clarify our previous results on F_1 and then obtain explicit expressions for F_2. Our calculations…

Recent results on the production of open charm in electron proton scattering at HERA are reviewed. Results on the fragmentation of charm are presented and compared to the measurements at e+e- colliders. Recent results on the charm…

The color dipole analysis of small-$(x, Q^2)$ neutrino DIS induced by the charmed-strange ($cs$) current reveals ordering of dipole sizes $m_c^{-2}<r^2<m_s^{-2}$ typical of the Double Leading Log Approximation (DLLA). The DLLA resummation…

The charm quark structure function $F^c_2$ and the longitudinal structure function $F_l^p$ are directly sensitive to the gluon content of proton and therefore are crucial in understanding of proton structure function, in particular at low…

In this paper, we have investigated the importance of quark charm in nuclear structure functions in the color dipole model at small $x$. The charm structure function per nucleon $F_{2}^{cA}/A$ for light and heavy nuclei in a wide range of…

We review recent HERA data on the structure function F_2 at small x and large Q^2. We show that the salient features of the data are revealed by comparing them to the double asymptotic scaling behaviour which F_2 is predicted to satisfy in…

The $e^{+}p$ and $e^{-}p$ scattering data recorded at HERA during the recent years offer the possibility to study electroweak effects in $ep$ interactions apparent at high momentum transfers, $Q^{2}$, and to reveal information on the proton…

On the basis of previous work by Fadin, Lipatov, and collaborators, and of our group, we extract the "irreducible" part of the next-to-leading (NL) BFKL kernel, we compute its (IR finite) eigenvalue function, and we discuss its implications…

We analyze the capability of charm production in deep-inelastic ep scattering at HERA to constrain the gluon distribution g(y,\mu^2) of the proton. The dependence of the theoretical predictions for the charm structure function F_2^c on the…

We study the contribution of the truncated BFKL series to the electroproduction process showing that a reliable description is obtained taking into account two orders in perturbation theory. Using the recent F2 logarithmic slope data as a…
