Probing the Parton Densities of Virtual Photons at ep Colliders

The feasibility of an experimental determination of the parton distributions of virtual photons at high energy $ep$ colliders is studied in the context of the DESY-HERA collider. Recently proposed parton densities of virtual photons are utilized to evaluate the appropriate production processes and their relevant kinematical regions. It is demonstrated that high $E_T$ jet production with $E_T\,\simeq 5-7\, {\rm{GeV}}$ and $b\bar{b}$ production can probe the parton distributions of virtual photons up to virtualities of a few ${\rm{GeV}}^2$. A useful leading order parametrization of our proposed photonic parton densities, suitable for further studies of these issues, is presented.

The Strange Sea Density and Charm Production in Deep Inelastic Charged Current Processes

Charm production as related to the determination of the strange sea density in deep inelastic charged current processes is studied predominantly in the framework of the $\overline{\rm{MS}}$ fixed flavor factorization scheme. Perturbative stability within this formalism is demonstrated. The compatibility of recent next-to-leading order strange quark distributions with the available dimuon and $F^{νN}_2$ data is investigated. It is shown that final conclusions concerning these distributions afford further analyses of presently available and/or forthcoming neutrino data.

Next-to-Leading Order Radiative Parton Model Analysis of Polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering

A next-to-leading order QCD analysis of spin asymmetries and structure functions in polarized deep inelastic lepton nucleon scattering is presented within the framework of the radiative parton model. A consistent NLO formulation of the $Q^2$-evolution of polarized parton distributions yields two sets of plausible NLO spin dependent parton distributions in the conventional $\overline{\rm{MS}}$ factorization scheme. They respect the fundamental positivity constraints down to the low resolution scale $Q^2=μ^2_{NLO}=0.34\,{\rm{GeV}}^2$. The $Q^2$-dependence of the spin asymmetries $A_1^{p,n,d}(x,Q^2)$ is similar to the leading-order (LO) one in the range $1\le Q^2\le 20\,{\rm{GeV}}^2$ and is shown to be non-negligible for $x$-values relevant for the analysis of the present data and possibly forthcoming data at HERA.

Radiative Parton Model Analysis of Polarized Deep Inelastic Lepton Nucleon Scattering

A leading order QCD analysis of spin asymmetries in polarized deep inelastic lepton nucleon scattering is presented within the framework of the radiative parton model. Two resulting sets of plausible leading order spin dependent parton distributions are presented, respecting the fundamental positivity constraints down to the low resolution scale $Q^2=μ_{LO}^2=0.23$ GeV$^2$. The $Q^2$ dependence of the spin asymmetries $A_1^{p,n,d}(x,Q^2)$ is investigated in the range $1 \leq Q^2 \leq 20$ GeV$^2$ and shown to be non-negligible for $x$-values relevant for the analysis of present data and possibly forthcoming data at HERA.
