Deep inelastic Scattering, QCD, and generalised vector dominance


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We provide a formulation of generalised vector dominance (GVD) for low-x deep-inelastic scattering that explicitly incorporates the ${gamma}^{ast} to q{bar q}$ transition and a QCD-inspired ansatz for the $(q{bar q})p$ forward-scattering amplitude. The destructive interference originally introduced in off-diagonal GVD is recovered in the present formulation and traced back to the generic structure of two-gluon-exchange as incorporated into the notion of colour transparency. Asymptotically, the transverse photoabsorption cross section behaves as (ln Q^2)/Q^2, implying a logarithmic violation of scaling for F_2, while the longitudinal-to-transverse ratio decreases as 1/ln Q^2.
