COMPARISON OF PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS AND STRUCTURE FUNCTIONS FOR THE PROTON

H. Abramowicz, K. Charchuła, M. Krawczyk, Aharon Levy

Abstract

A comparative study of the most popular parton parametrizations is presented. The individual parton distributions as well as the F2 structure function are discussed with a particular emphasis on the low x region, 10−4 −2. The predictions of these parametrizations for the F2 structure function have a wide spread which persists also in the HERA kinematical region.
