A new approach to calculate the gluon polarization

We derive the Leading-Order (LO) master equation to extract the polarized gluon distribution G(x,Q ²)=xδg(x,Q ²) from polarized proton structure function, g^p₁(x,Q²)g^{p}_{1}(x,Q^{2}). By using a Laplace-transform technique, we solve the master equation and derive the polarized gluon distribution inside the proton. The test of accuracy which is based in our calculations on two different methods, confirms that we achieve to the correct solution for the polarized gluon distribution. To determine the polarized gluon distribution xδg(x,Q ²) more accurately, we only need to have more experimental data on the polarized structure functions, g₁^p(x,Q²)g_{1}^{p}(x,Q^{2}). Our result for polarized gluon distribution is in good agreement with some phenomenological models.     

The longitudinal structure function F L(x, Q 2) and the gluon distribution G(x, Q 2) at low x

We obtain a relation between the longitudinal structure function F _L(x, Q ²), F ₂(x, Q ²) and G(x, Q ²) at small x, using the formalism recently reported by one of the authors [2]. We also obtain a relation between F _L(x, Q ²), F ₂(x, Q ²) and its slope (dF ₂(x, Q ²))/(dlnQ ²). This provides us with the determination of the longitudinal structure function F _L(x, Q ²) from F ₂(x, Q ²) data and hence extract the gluon distribution G(x, Q ²).     

On the perturbative stability of the QCD predictions for the ratio R=FL/FT in heavy-quark leptoproduction

We analyze the perturbative and parametric stability of the QCD predictions for the Callan–Gross ratio, R(x,Q ²)=F _L /F _T , in heavy-quark leptoproduction. We consider the radiative corrections to the dominant photon–gluon fusion mechanism. In various kinematic regions, the following contributions are investigated: exact NLO results at low and moderate Q ²≲m ², asymptotic NLO predictions at high Q ²≫m ², and both NLO and NNLO soft-gluon (or threshold) corrections at large Bjorken variable x. Our analysis shows that large radiative corrections to the structure functions F _T (x,Q ²) and F _L (x,Q ²) cancel each other in their ratio R(x,Q ²) with good accuracy. As a result, the NLO contributions to the Callan–Gross ratio are less than 10% in a wide region of the variables x and Q ². We provide compact LO predictions for R(x,Q ²) in the case of low x ≪1. A simple formula connecting the high-energy behavior of the Callan–Gross ratio and low-x asymptotics of the gluon density is derived. It is shown that the obtained hadron-level predictions for R(x→0,Q ²) are stable under the DGLAP evolution of the gluon distribution function. Our analytic results simplify the extraction of the structure functions F ₂ ^c (x,Q ²) and F ₂ ^b (x,Q ²) from measurements of the corresponding reduced cross sections, in particular at DESY HERA.     

On stationary topological solitons in a two-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg model

We study stationary two-dimensional solitons in an easy-axis Heisenberg magnet with the Hamiltonian density wherei=1, 2,a=1, 2, 3, and (x _i ) is the angle between unit vector s(x _i ) and the easy axis, 0<p<. Stable solitons with a topological chargeQ=1 and localized distributionss ^a (x _i ) withQ=2 are found. The existence of the bound states of two solitons withQ=1 is shown numerically for 0<p<.

Black holes with metric and fields of the same form

We present two rotating black hole solutions with axion ξ, dilaton f{\phi} and two U(1) vector fields. Starting from a non-rotating metric with three arbitrary parameters, which we have found previously, and applying the “Newman–Janis complex coordinate trick” we get a rotating metric g _μν with four arbitrary parameters namely the mass M, the rotation parameter a and the charges electric Q _E and magnetic Q _M . Then we find a solution of the equations of motion having this g _μν as metric. Our solution is asymptotically flat and has angular momentum J = M a, gyromagnetic ratio g = 2, two horizons, the singularities of the solution of Kerr, axion and dilaton singular only when r = a cos θ = 0 etc. By applying to our solution the S-duality transformation we get a new solution, whose axion, dilaton and vector fields have one more parameter. The metrics, the vector fields and the quantity l = x+ie^-2f{\lambda=\xi+ie^{-2\phi}} of our solutions and the solution of: Sen for Q _E , Sen for Q _E and Q _M , Kerr–Newman for Q _E and Q _M , Kerr, Reference Kyriakopoulos [Class. Quantum Grav. 23:7591, 2006, Eqs. (54–57)], Shapere, Trivedi and Wilczek, Gibbons–Maeda–Garfinkle–Horowitz–Strominger, Reissner–Nordstr?m, Schwarzschild are the same function of a, and two functions ρ ² = r(r + b) + a ² cos² θ and Δ = r(r + b) − 2Mr + a ² + c, of a, b and two functions for each vector field, and of a, b and d respectively, where a, b, c and d are constants. From our solutions several known solutions can be obtained for certain values of their parameters. It is shown that our two solutions satisfy the weak the dominant and the strong energy conditions outside and on the outer horizon and that all solutions with a metric of our form, whose parameters satisfy some relations satisfy also these energy conditions outside and on the outer horizon. This happens to all solutions given in the “Appendix”. Mass formulae for our solutions and for all solutions which are mentioned in the paper are given. One mass formula for each solution is of Smarr’s type and another a differential mass formula. Many solutions with metric, vector fields and λ of the same functional form, which include most physically interesting and well known solutions, are listed in an “Appendix”.     

Operators in a translation invariant two-dimensional bag model

Operator matrix elements are studied in a translation invariant version of the bag model in two-dimensional space time. In particular we calculate the matrix elements of quark fields Q(x), currents J_μ(x), and bilocal currents Q(x)γ_μλ^aQ(0) whose Taylor expansion yields the twist two operators of leptoproduction. The structure functions of this model are related to those of a naive cavity approximation by a particularly simple transformation.     

Scaling and non-scaling in a rest frame quark-parton model of the proton

Electron-proton deep inelastic scattering is treated as the incoherent scattering of electrons by bound Dirac partons in the proton rest frame. An approximate bound state wave function is used for the initial parton, while the final parton is considered free. A good fit is obtained to the structure function F₁(x,Q²) in the range x > 0.15, Q² > 2 GeV. The subsequent prediction for F₂(x,Q²) is not as good, indicating a small additional contribution by longitudinal photons for W < 2.5 GeV. The parton momentum distribution is found to contain transverse momentum of 400–600 MeV, increasing with x.     

On the rise of the proton structure function F2 towards low x

A measurement of the derivative (∂ lnF₂/∂ lnx)_Q²≡−λ(x,Q²) of the proton structure function F₂ is presented in the low x domain of deeply inelastic positron–proton scattering. For 5×10⁻⁵x0.01 and Q²1.5 GeV², λ(x,Q²) is found to be independent of x and to increase linearly with lnQ².     

Calculation of the electronic structure and spectra for bacteriochlorophyll analogs

Geometric structures and excited electronic states for free bases of bacteriochlorin (H₂BC) and tetraazabacteriochlorin (H₂TABC) as well as for their magnesium complexes (MgBC and MgTABC), analogs of bacteriopheophytin a (H₂BPhea) and bacteriochlorophyll a (MgBPhea), have been calculated by a DFT method and by an INDO/Sm method (the INDO/S method with parameterization modified by the authors), respectively. The factors responsible for the observed bathochromic shift of the long-wavelength Q _x (0–0) band of MgBPhea relative to H₂BPhea, \updelta E_Qx @ - 300  \textc\textm ^{- 1} {{\updelta }}{E_{{Q_x}}} \cong - 300\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{ - 1}} , have been clarified. Contributions of one- and two-electron interactions to the resulting shift of the Q _x (0–0) band have been analyzed in detail for the H₂BC/MgBC, H₂TABC/MgTABC, and porphine (H₂P)/Mg porphine (MgP) pairs. It is shown that the bathochromic shift under consideration for the tetrahydro derivatives is caused by a decrease of the orbital energy gap ε₁–ε₋₁ between the lowest unoccupied and highest occupied molecular orbitals. The variation of δ(ε₁–ε₋₁) is large and amounts to –1660 and –920 cm^–1 for the H₂BC/MgBC and H₂TABC/MgTABC pairs, respectively. The two-electron contributions, both into the energy of electronic configurations and due to the superposition of the configurations, produce a compensating hypsochromic effect such that the shifts \updelta E_Qx {{\updelta }}{E_{{Q_x}}} are –260 and –150 cm^–1 for the H₂BC/MgBC and H₂TABC/MgTABC pairs, respectively. It is also shown that the calculated electronic spectra for the considered molecules agree quantitatively with the experimental absorption spectra.     

On the asymptotic behavior of Wightman functions in space-like directions

The asymptotic behavior of the truncated vacuum expectation value of a product ofN (unbounded) quasilocal operators,F(x)=Q ₁(x ₁) ...Q _N (x _N ) _T , is investigated for some of the separations space-like. It is shown that unless all clusters {x _i1, ...,x _ij } are partially time-like (or light-like) separated from their complements ,F(x) decreases faster than any inverse power of the diameter of the set {x ₁, ...,x _N }.This work was supported in part by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.Research supported in part by the National Science Foundation.

Dual properties of orthogonal polynomials of discrete variables associated with the quantum algebra <Emphasis Type="Italic">U</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Subscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">su</Emphasis>(2))

We show that for every set of discrete polynomials y _n (x(s)) on the lattice x(s), defined on a finite interval (a, b), it is possible to construct two sets of dual polynomials z _k (ξ(t)) of degrees k = s-a and k = b-s-1. Here we do this for the classical and alternative Hahn and Racah polynomials as well as for their q-analogs. Also we establish the connection between classical and alternative families. This allows us to obtain new expressions for the Clerbsch-Gordan and Racah coefficients of the quantum algebra U _q (su(2)) in terms of various Hahn and Racah q-polynomials.

A phenomenological analysis of the longitudinal structure function at small <Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis> and low <Emphasis Type="Italic">Q</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>

The longitudinal structure function in deep-inelastic scattering is one of the observables from which the gluon distribution can be unfolded. Consequently, this observable can be used to constrain the QCD dynamics at small x. In this work we compare the predictions of distinct QCD models with the recent experimental results for F _L(x,Q ²) at small x and low Q ² obtained by the H1 Collaboration. We focus mainly on the color dipole approach, selecting those models which include saturation effects. Such models are suitable at this kinematical region and also resum a wide class of higher-twist contributions to the observables. Therefore, we investigate the influence of these corrections to F _L in the present region of interest.Received: 23 June 2004, Revised: 13 July 2004, Published online: 14 September 2004     

The BFKL-Regge factorization and F2b , F2c , FL at HERA: physics implications of nodal properties of the BFKL eigenfunctions

The asymptotic freedom is known to split the leading-log BFKL pomeron into a series of isolated poles in the complex angular momentum plane. One of our earlier findings was that the subleading hard BFKL exchanges decouple from such experimentally important observables as small-x charm F ₂ ^c , beauty F ₂ ^b and the longitudinal structure functions of the proton at moderately large Q ². For instance, we predicted precocious BFKL asymptotics of F ₂ ^c (x, Q ²) with intercept of the rightmost BFKL pole a _IP(0) − 1 = Δ_IP ≈ 0.4. On the other hand, the small-x open beauty photo- and electro-production probes the vacuum exchange for much smaller color dipoles which entails significant subleading vacuum pole corrections to the small-x behavior. In view of the accumulation of the experimental data on small-x F ₂ ^c and F ₂ ^b we extend our 1999 predictions to the kinematical domain covered by new HERA measurements. Our parameter-free results agree well with the determination of F ₂ ^c , F _L and published H1 results F ₂ ^b on but slightly overshoot the very recent (2008, preliminary) H1 results on F ₂ ^b .     

The transverse correlation length for randomly rough surfaces

It is shown by numerical simulations for a random, one-dimensional surface defined by the equationx ₃=(x ₁), where the surface profile function (x ₁) is a stationary, stochastic, Gaussian process, that the transverse correlation lengtha of the surface roughness is a good measure of the mean distance d between consecutive peaks and valleys on the surface. In the case that the surface height correlation function (x ₁)(x ₁)/²(x ₁)=W (|x ₁–x ₁|) has the Lorentzian formW(|x ₁|)=a ²/(x ₁ ² +a ²) we find that d=0.9080a; when it has the Gaussian formW(|x ₁|)=exp(–x ₁ ² /a ²), we find that d=1.2837a; and when it has the nonmonotonic formW(|x ₁|)=sin(x ₁/a)/(x ₁/a), we find that d=1.2883a. These results suggest that d is larger, the faster the surface structure factorg(|Q|) [the Fourier transform ofW(|x ₁|)] decays to zero with increasing |Q|. We also obtain the functionP(itx ₁), which is defined in such a way that, ifx ₁=0 is a zero of (x ₁),P(x ₁)dx ₁ is the probability that the nearest zero of (x ₁) for positivex ₁ lies betweenx ₁ andx ₁+dx ₁.     

Measurement of the diffractive cross section in deep inelastic scattering using ZEUS 1994 data

The DIS diffractive cross section, ds^diff_{g^* p ? XN}/dM_Xd\sigma^{di\!f\!f}_{\gamma^* p \to XN}/dM_X, has been measured in the mass range M_X < 15M_X < 15 GeV for g^*p\gamma^*p c.m. energies 60 < W < 20060 < W < 200 GeV and photon virtualities Q² = 7Q^2 = 7 to 140 GeV²^2. For fixed Q²Q^2 and M_XM_X, the diffractive cross section rises rapidly with WW, ds^diff_{g^*p ? XN}(M_X,W,Q²)/dM_X μ W^adiffd\sigma^{di\!f\!f}_{\gamma^*p \to XN}(M_X,W,Q^2)/dM_X \propto W^{a^{diff}} with a^diff = 0.507 ±0.034 (stat)^+0.155_-0.046(syst)a^{diff} = 0.507 \pm 0.034 (stat)^{+0.155}_{-0.046}(syst) corresponding to a t-averaged pomeron trajectory of [`( a<sub>\mathbb P</sub> )] = 1.127 ±0.009 (stat)<sup>+0.039</sup><sub>-0.012</sub> (syst)\overline{ \alpha_{_{{\mathbb P}}} } = 1.127 \pm 0.009 (stat)^{+0.039}_{-0.012} (syst) which is larger than [`( a_{\mathbb P} )]\overline{ \alpha_{_{{\mathbb P}}} } observed in hadron-hadron scattering. The W dependence of the diffractive cross section is found to be the same as that of the total cross section for scattering of virtual photons on protons. The data are consistent with the assumption that the diffractive structure function F^D(3)₂F^{D(3)}_2 factorizes according to x_{\mathbb P} F^D(3)₂ (x_{\mathbb P},b,Q²) = (x₀/ x_{\mathbb P})ⁿ F^D(2)₂(b,Q²)x_{_{{\mathbb P}}} F^{D(3)}_2 (x_{_{{\mathbb P}}},\beta,Q^2) = (x_0/ x_{_{{\mathbb P}}})^n F^{D(2)}_2(\beta,Q^2). They are also consistent with QCD based models which incorporate factorization breaking. The rise of x_{\mathbb P} F^D(3)₂x_{_{{\mathbb P}}} F^{D(3)}_2 with decreasing x_{\mathbb P}x_{_{{\mathbb P}}} and the weak dependence of F^D(2)₂F^{D(2)}_2 on Q²Q^2 suggest a substantial contribution from partonic interactions.     

The BFKL-Regge phenomenology of deep inelastic scattering

We calculate the Regge trajectories of the subleading BFKL singularities and eigenfunctions for the running BFKL pomeron in the color dipole representation. We obtain a viable BFKL-Regge expansion of the proton structure function F _2p (x,Q ²) in terms of several rightmost BFKL singularities. We find large subleading contributions to F _2p (x,Q ²) in the HERA kinematical region which explain the lack of predictive power of GLDAP extrapolations of F _2p (x,Q ²) to the region of small x. We point out the relation of our early finding of precocious BFKL asymptotic behavior to the nodal structure of subleading BFKL eigenfunctions. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.
