The proton structure function and a soft Regge Dipole Pomeron: a test with recent data

Abstract

A recently published soft Regge Dipole Pomeron model intended for all $x$ and $Q^2$ is proved to give a good agreement with (non fitted) recent HERA data from ZEUS (SVX95) on the protonstructure function $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ at low $Q^2$ and low $x$. The model also reproduces (without fit) the recently estimated experimental derivatives $\frac{\partial F_2^p}{\partial \ell n{Q}^2}$ and $\frac{\partial \ell n{F}_2^p}{\partial \ell n(1/x)}$ in a wide $x$ and $Q^2$-region.
