Global QCD fit from Q 2 = 0 to Q 2 = 30000 GeV 2 with Regge - compatible initial condition

چکیده
In this paper I show that it is possible to use Regge theory to constrain the initial parton distribution functions of a global DGLAP fit. In this approach, both quarks and gluons have the same high-energy behaviour which may also be used to describe soft interactions. More precisely, I show that, if we parametrise the parton distributions with a triple-pole pomeron, i.e. like log 2 (1/x) at small x, at Q 2 = Q 2 0 and evolve these distribution with the DGLAP equation, we can reproduce F

Structure Functions and Low X Physics
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 ≤ Q 2 ≤ 5 GeV 2. Using it as an initial condition in the perturbative QCD evolution equation, we describe structure functions at any Q 2 and x-including the small x region explored at HERA.

We perform a global leading-order QCD fit to recent polarized structure function data in order to extract a consistent set of spin-dependent parton distributions. Assuming that there is no significant intrinsic polarization of the quark sea, the data are consistent with a modest amount of the proton's spin carried by the gluon, although the shape of the gluon distribution is not well constraine...
متن کاملProbing the Perturbative NLO Parton Evolution in the Small–x Region
A dedicated test of the perturbative QCD NLO parton evolution in the very small–x region is performed. We find a good agreement with recent precision HERA–data for F p 2 (x,Q), as well as with the present determination of the curvature of F p 2 . Characteristically, perturbative QCD evolutions result in a positive curvature which increases as x decreases. Future precision measurements in the ve...
متن کاملHeavy Flavour Production at HERA
Measurements of charm production in lepton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of p s = 300 GeV performed at HERA by the experiments H1 and ZEUS are reviewed. Final states containing charm are mainly identiied by reconstruction of D and J= mesons. The results cover the region in 4-momentum transfer squared Q 2 , from photoproduction (Q 2 0) to deep-inelastic scattering at high Q 2. The...
متن کاملDiffractive parton distributions from H 1 data
We analyse the latest H1 large rapidity gap data to obtain diffractive parton distributions , using a procedure based on perturbative QCD, and compare them with distributions obtained from the simplified Regge factorisation type of analysis. The diffractive parton densities and structure functions are made publically available. The H1 Collaboration have recently released measurements of diffrac...
