Article: Double-logarithms in Einstein-Hilbert gravity and supergravity
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We study the interplay between graviton reggeization and double-logarithmic in energy contributions to four-graviton scattering in theories with and without supersymmetry. Predictions to all orders in the gravitational coupling are given for these double-logarithms. As the number of supersymmetries grows these terms generate a convergent behaviour for the amplitudes at very high energies. At two-loop level, we find agreement with previous exact results for N=8 supergravity and with those of Boucher-Veronneau and Dixon, who studied the N=4,5,6 supergravities using a conjectured double-copy structure of gravity.08/2012; -
Article: Twist expansion of the nucleon structure functions, F2 and FL, in the DGLAP improved saturation model
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Higher twist effects in the deeply inelastic scattering are studied. We start with a short review of the theoretical results on higher twists in QCD. Within the saturation model we perform a twist analysis of the nucleon structure functions FT and FL at small value of the Bjorken variable x. The parameters of the model are fitted to the HERA F2 data, and we derive a prediction for the longitudinal structure function FL. We conclude that for FL the higher twist corrections are sizable whereas for F2 = FT + FL there is a nearly complete cancellation of twist-4 corrections in FT and FL. We discuss a few consequences for future LHC measurements. Comment: 27 pages, 11 figures11/2009; -

Article: $\gamma^* \gamma^*$ Scattering via Secondary Reggeon Exchange in QCD
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We summarize the results on the high energy behavior of quark-antiquark exchange in $\gamma^* \gamma^*$ elastic scattering. The ladder diagrams, summed in the double logarithmic approximation, provide a perturbative QCD model for secondary reggeon exchange.

Article: Factorization of Twist-Four Gluon Operator Contributions
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We consider diagrams with up to four t-channel gluons in order to specify gluonic twist-four contributions to deep inelastic structure functions. This enables us to extend the method developed by R.K.Ellis, W.Furmanski, and R.Petronzio (EFP) to the gluonic case. The method is based on low-order Feynman diagrams in combination with a dimensional analysis. It results in explicitly gauge invariant expressions for the factorization of twist-four gluon-operator matrix elements and the corresponding coefficient functions.09/1999; -
Article: An Estimate of Twist-Four Contributions at Small x and Low Q^2
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We present a first study of gluonic twist-four corrections to the deep inelastic structure function F_2 at small x and small Q^2. The calculations are based upon the double logarithmic approximation of the coupled twist-four evolution equations of the gluonic twist-four operators that are expected to be dominant at small x. We first review the analytical results which are presently available and define the framework of our calculation. In the second part we discuss the connection with DIS diffractive dissociation which can be used to estimate the size of some of the twist-four corrections. In the final part we show, for three different choices of the input distributions, the relative magnitude of the leading-twist and the twist-four contributions.
