Next-to-Leading Order Structure Function Evolution at Small x and Large Q^2
Abstract
Description
We show that a unified approach to the perturbative evolution of structure functions which sums all logarithms of Q^2 and 1/x at leading and next-to-leading order yields results in full agreement with the 1993 HERA data for F_2. This makes it possible to determine alpha_s surprisingly accurately from these data alone.
