Rise of the DIS structure function F_L at small x caused by double-logarithmic contributions
arXiv:2012.10633 · doi:10.1007/JHEP03(2021)274
Abstract
We present calculation of F_L in the double-logarithmic approximation and demonstrate that the synergic effect of the factor 1/x from the α_s^2-order and the steep x-dependence of the totally resummed double logarithmic contributions of higher orders ensures the power-like rise of F_L at small x and arbitrary Q^2.
