The strikingly different high energy behaviours of real photoabsorption cross-sections with Q^2 = 0 and the low x proton structure function at large Q^2 are studied from a laboratory frame viewpoint, in which the x and Q^2 dependence…

We calculate structure functions at small $x$ both under the assumption of a hard singularity (a power behaviour $x^{-\lambda}, \lambda$ positive, for $x\rightarrow 0$) or that of a soft-Pomeron dominated behaviour, also called double…

It is shown that recent small-x measurements of the photon structure function F_2^{\gamma}(x,Q^2) by the LEP-OPAL collaboration are consistent with parameter-free QCD predictions at all presently accessible values of Q^2.

We pursue the hypothesis that the events with a large rapidity gap, observed at HERA, reflect the scattering of electrons off lumps of wee partons inside the proton. A simple scaling behaviour is predicted for the diffractive structure…

The proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) is measured in inelastic QED Compton scattering using data collected with the H1 detector at HERA. QED Compton events are used to access the kinematic range of very low virtualities of the exchanged…

An introduction and summary is given of the main results achieved by working group 1: Structure Functions in Deep Inelastic Scattering at HERA. The prospects were discussed of future measurements of the structure functions $F_{2}, F_{L},…

An NLO QCD analysis on the HERA combined cross sections obtained from the measurements using the data up to the year 2000 at both the H1 and ZEUS collaborations provides significantly improved parton distribution functions. In 2007, HERA…

We show that the HERA data for the inclusive structure function F_2(x,Q^2) for x < 0.01 and 0.045 < Q^2 < 45 GeV^2 can be well described within the color dipole picture, with a simple analytic expression for the dipole-proton scattering…

A small electromagnetic sampling calorimeter, installed in the ZEUS experiment in 1995, significantly enhanced the acceptance for very low x and low Q^2 inelastic neutral current scattering, e^{+}p \to e^{+}X, at HERA. A measurement of the…

We derive an expression for diffractive F_2 structure function which should be valid at small x for quasi-elastic scattering on a hadron and for quasi-elastic scattering on a large nucleus. This expression includes multiple rescatterings of…

We show how the sum of a hard singularity, $F_{2H}(x,Q^2_0)\sim x^{-\lambda}$ and a soft Pomeron $F_{2P}(x,Q^2_0)\sim Const.$ for the singlet piece of the structure function $F_{2S}=F_{2H}+F_{2P}$ for $Q_0^2\sim a few GeV^2$, plus a…

The first measurement of F_2,c^gamma is presented. At low x the measurement indicates a non-zero hadron-like component to F_2,c^gamma. At large x the measurement constitutes a test of perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order, with only m_c…

The flux of papers from electron positron colliders containing data on the photon structure function ended naturally around 2005. It is thus timely to review the theoretical basis and confront the predictions with a summary of the…

In the framework of conventional Regge theory we present a common description of total photon-proton cross-section and proton structure functions in the region $0 \leq Q^2 \leq 5 \ {\rm GeV}^2$. Using it as an initial condition in the…

We examine the QCD corrections to the structure functions $F_2^\gamma(x,Q^2)$ and $F_L^\gamma(x,Q^2)$ for a real photon target. The pointlike photon contributions from light and heavy quarks are computed through $O(\alpha\alpha_S)$. A…

We report on a measurement of the proton structure function $F_2$ in the range $3.5\times10^{-5}\leq x \leq 4\times10^{-3}$ and 1.5 ${\rm GeV^2} \leq Q^2 \leq15$ ${\rm GeV^2}$ at the $ep$ collider HERA operating at a centre-of-mass energy…

We show that a unified approach to the perturbative evolution of structure functions which sums all logarithms of Q^2 and 1/x at leading and next-to-leading order yields results in full agreement with the 1993 HERA data for F_2. This makes…

We study photon--meson transition form factors $\gamma^*(Q^2)\gamma \to \pi^0,\eta,\eta'$ at low and moderately high virtualities $Q^2$ of one of the photons, the second photon being real. For the description of the form factor at low…

We derive the dominant part of the O(\alpha_s^2) correction to the photon energy spectrum in the inclusive decay B-> X_s+gamma. The detailed knowledge of the spectrum is important for relating the theoretical calculations of the B-> X_s +…

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…
