We give a brief overview of nuclear parton distributions. First, the EMC effect is discussed together with possible interpretations such as nuclear binding and $Q^2$ rescaling. Next, we explain shadowing descriptions:…
Spin effects in exclusive and inclusive reactions provide an essential new dimension for testing QCD and unraveling hadron structure. Remarkable new experiments from SLAC, HERMES (DESY), and the Jefferson Laboratory present many challenges…
Understanding the effects of a background hadronic medium on hadronic observables is important in the context of hadron structure. Many experiments probing nucleon structure make use of nuclear targets and unraveling the modifications that…
Theoretical energy levels of the $n = 1$ and $n = 2$ states of hydrogenlike atoms with the nuclear charge numbers $1 \le Z \le 110$ are tabulated. The tabulation is based on ab initio quantum electrodynamical calculations performed to all…
We compute the spin-dependent and spin-independent structure functions of the forward virtual-photon Compton tensor of the proton at one loop using heavy baryon effective theory including the Delta particle. We compare with previous results…
The electromagnetic excitation of the $\Delta(1232)$-resonance plays an appreciable role in the Lamb shift and hyperfine structure of muonic and electronic hydrogen. Its effect appears at the subleading order $\mathcal{O}(\alpha^5)$,…
By enhancing electron position fluctuations, equilibrium electromagnetic radiation modifies the potential for an electron in a Hydrogen atom. This can have significant effects for weakly bound states and especially at finite temperature.…
The alternative to the standard formulation of the quark-parton model is proposed. Our relativistically covariant approach is based on the solution of the master equations relating the structure and distribution functions, which…
The impact of unitarity is considered in different approaches to saturation in impact-parameter space. The energy and momentum-transfer dependence of the total and differential cross sections and of the ratio of the real to imaginary parts…
Measuring the 2S-2P Lamb shift in a hydrogen-like muonic atom allows one to extract its nuclear charge radius with a high precision that is limited by the uncertainty in the nuclear structure corrections. The charge radius of the proton…
The electromagnetic polarizabilities are fundamental properties of the proton that characterize its response to an external EM field. The generalization of the EM polarizabilities to non-zero four-momentum transfer opens up a powerful path…
Based on the simple phenomenological $\sigma \pi \pi$, $\sigma N N$ and $\pi \pi \gamma$ interactions, we estimate the $\sigma$ exchange effect in the Lamb shift of muonic hydrogen. We at first calculate the effective couplings of…
Leading corrections to Planck's formula and photon thermodynamics arising from the pair-mediated photon-photon interaction are calculated. This interaction is attractive and causes an increase in occupation number for all modes. Possible…
A comprehensive theory of the Lamb shift in light muonic atoms such as $\mu$H, $\mu$D, $\mu^3$He$^+$, and $\mu^4$He$^+$ is presented, with all quantum electrodynamic corrections included at the precision level constrained by the uncertainty…
A brief summary of the theoretical and experimental knowledge of the spin structure of the proton is presented. The helicity distributions of quark and gluons are discussed, together with their related sum rules. The transversity…
We consider the two-photon exchange contribution to the $2P-2S$ Lamb shift in muonic deuterium in the framework of forward dispersion relations. The dispersion integrals are evaluated using experimental data on elastic deuteron form factors…
Effect of the quark intrinsic motion on the proton spin structure functions is demonstrated. It is shown, that the covariant version of the quark-parton model taking into account the orbital motion gives the consistent picture of the proton…
Up to now, all charge radius measurements of the proton and deuteron assumed uniform spheroidal charge distribution. We investigate the nuclear deformation effects on these charge radius measurements by assuming a uniform prolate charge…
The proton charge radius inferred from muonic hydrogen spectroscopy is not compatible with the previous value given by CODATA-2010, which, on its turn, essentially relies on measurements of the electron-proton interaction. The proton's new…
Model independent expressions for all polarization observables in $\mu+p\to \mu+p$ elastic scattering are obtained, taking into account the lepton mass and including the two-photon exchange contribution. The spin structure of the matrix…
