We investigate the dependence of the deep inelastic proton structure function $F_L(x, Q^2)$ on different forms of the transverse momentum dependent (TMD, or unintegrated) gluon distribution. We present a comparison of theoretical results…
The strong coupling alpha_s is a fundamental parameter of the Standard Model. In comparison to parameters like alpha_em and M_Z it is relatively poorly known. However the precision of alpha_s measurements has improved dramatically in recent…
We review the determination of the QED coupling at the Z pole, which is a crucial parameter for electroweak theory. We include recent e+e- -> hadron data from Novosibirsk and Beijing to re-evaluate alpha (M_Z^2). We find 1/alpha (M_Z^2) =…
Measurements of proton structure functions made in neutral and charged current interactions at HERA are discussed, covering four-momentum transfers Q^2 from about 0.5 GeV^2 to 30000 GeV^2. The results include the rise of the structure…
A global analysis of proton electric form factor experimental data from Rosenbluth separation and low squared four-momentum transfer experiments is discussed for the evaluation of the spatial moments of the proton charge density based on…
In a recent publication [Ferreira {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. D89 (2014) 083011] we tested the consistency of current astrophysical tests of the stability of the fine-structure constant $\alpha$ and the proton-to-electron mass ratio…
The current phenomenological determinations of $\alpha_s(M_\tau)$ and $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ are shown to be only marginally consistent with the QCD evolution of the strong coupling constant between $M_Z$ and $M_\tau$. This motivates a revised…
We discuss the extraction of alpha_s using isovector hadronic tau decay data and sum rules constructed specifically to suppress contributions associated with poorly known higher dimension condensates. We show, first, that problems with the…
We performed NLO QCD analysis of the nonsinglet part of the combined SLAC/BCDMS data on $F_2$ with the extraction of $\alpha_s$ and high twist contribution. It was shown that the value of $\alpha_s$ obtained in the analysis is sensitive to…
Using a novel analysis technique, the gluon polarisation in the nucleon is re-evaluated using the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry measured in the cross section of semi-inclusive single-hadron muoproduction with photon virtuality…
We present recent QCD results in nu-N scattering at the Fermilab CCFR/NuTeV experiments. We present the latest Next-to-Next-Leading order strong coupling constant, alpha-s, extracted from Gross-Llewellyn-Smith sum rule. The value of alpha-s…
The determination of alpha_s(M_Z) via perturbative analyses of short-distance-sensitive lattice observables is revisited, incorporating new lattice data and performing a modified version of the original analysis. The analysis employs two…
Perturbative QCD with nf flavours of massless quarks becomes simple in the hypothetical limit nf -> 16.5, where the leading beta-function coefficient vanishes. The Banks-Zaks (BZ) expansion in a0=(8/321)(16.5-nf) is straightforward to…
Power corrections to the Q**2 behaviour of the low-order moments of both the longitudinal and transverse structure functions of proton and deuteron have been investigated using available phenomenological fits of existing data in the Q**2…
By performing an analysis in moment space using high statistics DIS world data, we extract the values of both the QCD parameter $\Lambda^{(4)}_{\bar{MS}}$ up to NLO and of the power corrections to the proton structure function, $F_2$. At…
Motivated by recent preliminary results from the SLD Collaboration on the measurement of angle-dependent B-Bbar energy correlations in Z^0 -> b bbar events, we propose a class of observables that can be computed as a power expansion in the…
The precision measurements of the strong coupling constant, alphas, and its energy-scale dependence carried out at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations are reviewed. An average value of alphas(Mz) = 0.1186 +- 0.0011 (exp.) +- 0.0050 (th.)…
A first determination of the strong coupling $\alpha_s(m_Z)$ in next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) from inclusive jet and dijet production cross sections in deep-inelastic scattering at HERA is presented. Data collected by the H1…
A precise proton structure function F_2 at low x is measured. The data is interpreted in the framework of QCD with an extraction of gluon density xg. The charm contribution to F_2 is determined in an extended kinematic range. Neutral and…
The proton structure function F2 is studied in the low x regime using BFKL evolution. The next to leading logarithmic (NLL) analysis requires the inclusion of running coupling effects which lead to off-diagonal terms in the evolution…
