AbstractWe present nonlinear corrections (NLCs) to the distribution functions at low values of x and $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 using the parametrization $$F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$$ F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) and $$F_{L}(x,Q^{2})$$ F L ( x , Q 2 ) . We use a direct method to extract nonlinear corrections to the ratio of structure functions and the reduced cross section in the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) approximation with respect to the parametrization method (PM). Comparisons between the nonlinear results with the bounds in the color dipole model (CDM) and HERA data indicate the consistency of the nonlinear behavior of the gluon distribution function at low x and low $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 . The nonlinear longitudinal structure functions are comparable with the H1 Collaboration data in a wide range of $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 values. Consequently, the nonlinear corrections at NNLO approximation to the reduced cross sections at low and moderate $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 values show good agreement with the HERA combined data. These results at low x and low $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 can be applied to the LHeC region for analyses of ultra-high-energy processes.

Abstract The high energy Operator Product Expansion for the product of two electromagnetic currents is extended to the sub-eikonal level in a rigorous way. I calculate the impact factors for polarized and unpolarized structure functions, define new distribution functions, and derive the evolution equations for unpolarized and polarized structure functions in the flavor singlet and non-singlet case.

Abstract High-energy lepton colliders with a centre-of-mass energy in the multi-TeV range are currently considered among the most challenging and far-reaching future accelerator projects. Studies performed so far have mostly focused on the reach for new phenomena in lepton-antilepton annihilation channels. In this work we observe that starting from collider energies of a few TeV, electroweak (EW) vector boson fusion/scattering (VBF) at lepton colliders becomes the dominant production mode for all Standard Model processes relevant to studying the EW sector. In many cases we find that this also holds for new physics. We quantify the size and the growth of VBF cross sections with collider energy for a number of SM and new physics processes. By considering luminosity scenarios achievable at a muon collider, we conclude that such a machine would effectively be a “high-luminosity weak boson collider,” and subsequently offer a wide range of opportunities to precisely measure EW and Higgs couplings as well as discover new particles.

Recent progress in the understanding of the nucleon is presented. The unpolarized structure functions are obtained with unprecedented precision from the combined H1 and ZEUS data and are used to extract proton parton distribution functions via NLO QCD fits. The obtained parametrization displays an improved precision, in particular at low Bjorken x, and leads to precise predictions of cross-sections for LHC phenomena. Recent data from proton–antiproton collisions at Tevatron indicate further precise constraints at large Bjorken x. The flavor content of the proton is further studied using final states with charm and beauty in DIS ep and [Formula: see text] collisions. Data from polarized DIS or proton–proton collisions are used to test the spin structure of the proton and to constrain the polarized parton distributions.

We present the complete O(αs) corrections to the electroweak cross sections of both neutral current and charged current deep inelastic e±p scattering including lepton polarization effects. Changes in the cross section due to the inclusion of next-to-leading-log (NLL) effects are parametrized by K factors, which are defined as the ratio of the NLL O(αs) cross sections and the Born cross section. Using the standard redefinition scheme of the parton densities, we find that the K factors deviate substantially from unity for small values of the Bjorken-Scaling variable x. We also elaborate on problems that arise when defining jet cross sections in ep scattering and present numerical results for the O(αs) 3-jet and 2-jet rates. We observe that the Q2-dependence of the 3-jet rate is dominated by the running strong coupling constant αs(Q2) allowing for its determination over a wide range in Q2 at high energy ep colliders.

Recent progress in the field of spin physics of high energy particle interactions is reviewed with particular emphasis on the spin structure functions as measured in polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering (DIS). New measurements are presented to obtain more direct information on the composition of the nucleon angular momentum, with results from semi-inclusive DIS accessing flavour-separated parton distribution functions (PDF) and with first data from hard exclusive reactions which may be interpreted in terms of recently developed generalizations of parton distribution functions (GPD). Finally, experimental prospects are outlined which will lead to a further development of the virtues of QCD phenomenology of the spin structure of the nucleon.

We extend the physics case for a new high-energy, ultra-high statistics neutrino scattering experiment, NuSOnG (Neutrino Scattering On Glass) to address a variety of issues including precision QCD measurements, extraction of structure functions, and the derived Parton Distribution Functions (PDF's). This experiment uses a Tevatron-based neutrino beam to obtain a sample of Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) events which is over two orders of magnitude larger than past samples. We outline an innovative method for fitting the structure functions using a parametrized energy shift which yields reduced systematic uncertainties. High statistics measurements, in combination with improved systematics, will enable NuSOnG to perform discerning tests of fundamental Standard Model parameters as we search for deviations which may hint of "Beyond the Standard Model" physics.

The behavior of the charm and bottom structure functions [Formula: see text], where i = c, and b; k = 2, and L) at small-x is considered with respect to the hard-Pomeron and saturation models. Having checked that this behavior predicate the heavy flavor reduced cross-sections concerning the unshadowed and shadowed corrections. We will show that the effective exponents for the unshadowed and saturation corrections are independent of x and Q2, and also the effective coefficients are dependent to ln Q2 compared to Donnachie–Landshoff (DL) and color dipole models (CDMs).

An approach to modelling radial distribution functions (RDFs) of nanoparticle samples over a wide range of interatomic distances is presented. Two different types of contribution to the model RDF are calculated. The first explicitly reflects the structure of the nanoparticle parts with more or less crystalline atomic structure. It can be calculated precisely and contains comparatively sharp peaks, which are produced by the set of discrete interatomic distances. The second includes RDF contributions from distances between weakly correlated atoms positioned within different nanoparticles or within different parts of a nanoparticle model. The calculation is performed using the approximation of a uniform distribution of atoms and utilizes the ideas of the characteristic functions of the particle shape known in small-angle scattering theory. This second RDF contribution is represented by slowly varying functions of interatomic distancer. The relative magnitude of this essential part of the model RDF increases with increasingrcompared with the part that represents the ordered structure. The method is applied to test several spherical and core/shell models of semiconductor nanoparticles stabilized with organic ligands. The experimental RDFs of ZnSe and CdSe/ZnS nanoparticle samples were obtained by high-energy X-ray diffraction at beamline BW5, HASYLAB, DESY. The ZnSe nanoparticles have a spherical core with approximately 26 Å diameter and zincblende structure. The RDF of the CdSe/ZnS nanoparticle sample shows resolved peaks of the first- and the second-neighbour distances characteristic for CdSe (2.62 and 4.27 Å) and for ZnS (2.33 and 3.86 Å) and for the first time clearly confirms the presence of CdSe and ZnS nanophases in such objects. The diameters of the CdSe and ZnS spherical cores are estimated as 27 and 15 Å. CdSe and ZnS are present in the sample for the most part as independent nanoparticles. A smaller amount of ZnS forms an irregularly shaped shell around the CdSe cores, which consists of small independently oriented ZnS particles.

Abstract We present a model-independent determination of the nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) using machine learning methods and Monte Carlo techniques based on the NNPDF framework. The neutral-current deep-inelastic nuclear structure functions used in our previous analysis, nNNPDF1.0, are complemented by inclusive and charm-tagged cross-sections from charged-current scattering. Furthermore, we include all available measurements of W and Z leptonic rapidity distributions in proton-lead collisions from ATLAS and CMS at $$ \sqrt{s} $$ s = 5.02 TeV and 8.16 TeV. The resulting nPDF determination, nNNPDF2.0, achieves a good description of all datasets. In addition to quantifying the nuclear modifications affecting individual quarks and antiquarks, we examine the implications for strangeness, assess the role that the momentum and valence sum rules play in nPDF extractions, and present predictions for representative phenomenological applications. Our results, made available via the LHAPDF library, highlight the potential of high-energy collider measurements to probe nuclear dynamics in a robust manner.

We consider the QCD parton saturation models to describe the soft interactions at the high-energy limit. The total and elastic cross-sections, as well as the elastic slope parameter, are obtained for proton-proton and pion-proton collisions and compared to recent experimental results.
