Calculations are presented of the longitudinal structure function $F_L(x, Q^2)$. We use next-to-leading order expressions in QCD $({\cal{O}}(\alpha_s^2))$ plus parton densities determined previously from global fits to data on deep…
We present the complete NLO QCD analysis of the photon structure functions $F_2^\gamma(x,Q^2)$ and $F_L^\gamma(x,Q^2)$ for a real photon target. In particular we study the heavy flavor content of the structure functions which is due to two…
We investigate the polarized photon structure functions $g_1^\gamma$ and $g_2^\gamma$ which can be studied in the future polarized version of ep or e$^+$e$^-$ colliders. The NLO QCD calculations of $g_1^\gamma$ and the possible twist-3…
The longitudinal structure function in deep inelastic scattering is one of the observables from which the gluon distribution can be unfolded. Consequently, this observable can be used to constrain the QCD dynamics at small $x$. In this work…
The current status of measurements of the nucleon structure functions and their understanding is reviewed. The fixed target experiments E665, CCFR and NMC and the HERA experiments H1 and ZEUS are discussed in some detail. The extraction of…
At small-x, the structure function F_L(x,Q2) is driven by the gluon content of the nucleon target and consequently it can unravel the underlying QCD dynamics in that region. In this work, one studies its behavior on photon virtuality Q2 at…
The photon structure function is a useful testing ground for QCD. It is perturbatively computable apart from a contribution from what is usually called the hadronic component of the photon. There have been many proposals for this…
The production of final state photons in deep inelastic scattering originates from photon radiation off leptons or quarks involved in the scattering process. Photon radiation off quarks involves a contribution from the quark-to-photon…
Fully differential heavy quark contributions to the photon structure functions in deeply inelastic scattering are computed in next-to-leading order QCD, including both the direct and resolved contributions. A variety of distributions are…
A measurement of the proton structure function $F_{\!2}(x,Q^2)$ is reported for momentum transfer squared $Q^2$ between 4.5 $GeV^2$ and 1600 $GeV^2$ and for Bjorken $x$ between $1.8\cdot10^{-4}$ and 0.13 using data collected by the HERA…
Elements of the alternative approach to hard collisions of photons, proposed recently by the author, are reviewed, with particular attention to QCD analysis of $F^{\gamma}_2$. This approach is based on clear separation of genuine QCD…
We discuss a possible measurement of the ratio of the nucleon structure functions, F2n/F2p, and the ratio of the up to down quark distributions, u/d, at large x, by performing deep inelastic electron scattering from the 3H and 3He mirror…
The structure of both quasi-real and highly virtual photons is investigated using the reaction e+e- -> e+e-mu+mu-, proceeding via the exchange of two photons. The results are based on the complete OPAL dataset taken at e+e- centre-of-mass…
This report is an overview of the gamma-gamma physics capabilities of LEP2, and covers the following topics: structure functions, equivalent photon approximation, tagging conditions etc, soft and semihard physics, large-$p_t$ processes,…
The parametrisation of the photon structure function in the low Q^2 region is formulated. It includes the VMD contribution and the QCD improved parton model component suitably extrapolated to the low Q^2 region. The parametrisation…
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…
The hadronic interactions of the photon are studied in terms of new measurements of the total hadronic cross section and di-jet production in photon-photon collisions at LEP2.
The virtual photon structure function $g_1^{\gamma}(x,Q^2,P^2)$, which can be obtained in polarized $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliding-beam experiments, is investigated for $\Lambda^2 \ll P^2 \ll Q^2$, where $-Q^2$ ($-P^2$) is the mass squared of the…
The QCD structure of the electron is defined and calculated. The leading order splitting functions are extracted, showing an important contribution from $\gamma$-$Z$ interference. Leading logarithmic QCD evolution equations are constructed…
Deep inelastic structure functions $F_2^A(x)$ are investigated in a $Q^2$ rescaling model with parton recombination effects. We find that the model can explain experimentally measured $F_2^A(x)$ structure functions reasonably well in the…
