Q**2 dependence of nuclear structure functions is important for understanding perturbative QCD in nuclear environment. However, current experimental data are not sufficient for studying nuclear dependence in the Q**2 evolution because the…
Recently the H1 collaboration has published a ``determination'' of the structure function F_L(x,Q^2) at low x. I address the question of how reliable this determination really is. I argue that it is in fact a consistency check of a given…
Light charged hadron production data in the current fragmentation region at HERA are calculated using next-to-leading order perturbative calculations and fragmentation functions obtained from similar data from e+ e- reactions. General good…
Recent measurements of multijet production in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA are presented. Emphasis is put on parton dynamics at low x.
The evidence from HERA for parton saturation, and other low-$x$ effects beyond the conventional DGLAP formalism, is recalled and critically reviewed in the light of new data and analyses presented at the conference.
Interactions of virtual photons are analyzed in terms of photon structure. It is argued that the concept of parton distribution functions is phenomenologically very useful even for highly virtual photons involved in hard collisions. The…
We review the predictions on angular correlations and their recent experimental tests at LEP and HERA. Power behaviour of correlation functions appear for large angles and reflect the underlying fractal structure in jet evolution.…
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…
Recent improvements in the analysis techniques and Monte Carlo models used in the measurement of the hadronic structure function of the photon have lead to much improved experimental results. Its low x behaviour was studied in various Q^2…
We present estimates of possible data on spin-dependent asymmetries in inclusive scattering of high energy polarized electrons by high energy polarized protons at HERA, including statistical errors, and discuss systematic uncertainties. We…
Recent measurements of the diffractive cross section in deep-inelastic scattering at HERA are presented. The data are used to investigate the factorisation properties of diffractive DIS and to examine its quantum chromodynamic structure.…
We present a set of formula to extract exponents of the longitudinal structure function and reduced cross section from the Regge-like behavior at small $x$. The exponents are found to be independent of $Q^{2}$ at NNLO analysis. As a result,…
A first measurement is reported of the longitudinal proton structure function F_L(x,Q^2) at the ep collider HERA. It is based on inclusive deep inelastic e^+p scattering cross section measurements with a positron beam energy of 27.5 GeV and…
An attempt is made to illustrate the relation between low x process es and diffraction. ep scattering provides a unique laboratory, a single hadronic target probed by a point like lepton, where one can try to understand diffraction in terms…
It is shown that the CKMT model for the nucleon structure function $F_2$ gives a good description of the recent HERA data at low and moderate $Q^2$. Also the fit to the same data obtained with a modified version of the model in which a…
The subject of lepton-hadron scattering is discussed from its earliest beginnings, concentrating on what we have learnt from the HERA electron-proton storage ring. A brief selection of the HERA I results most relevant to LHC are discussed.…
The reduced cross sections for ep deep inelastic scattering have been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA at three different centre-of-mass energies, 318, 251 and 225 GeV. From the cross sections, measured double differentially in…
We critically analyse the data available on the reduced cross-section in deeply inelastic $e p$ scattering from the H1 collaboration at HERA. We use available data on the longitudinal structure function to deduce the nature of $\d F_2/\d\ln…
The uncertainties involved in the calculation of bottom quark cross-sections in deep-inelastic scattering at HERA are studied in different phase space regions. Besides the inclusive bottom quark cross-section, definitions closer to the…
A brief review is given on the physics potential of HERA beyond the presently approved programme. Questions of particular interest include QCD in a regime of weak coupling and high partonic densities achieved in eA collisions and spin…
