QCD calculations in the light-cone gauge

The non-singlet quark structure function is calculated in the leading logarithm approximation in an axial gauge with n² = 0, the light-cone gauge. The choice n² = 0 leads to a simple identity for loop integrals involving the extra n · k denominators. We compare the results graph by graph with both Feynman gauge QCD and a scalar gluon theory. The leading diagrams are the same “rainbow” diagrams as for the case of the scalar theory.The techniques are also applied to quark-quark scattering at large transverse momentum. The leading diagrams have the same dressed ladder-form factor structure.
