The small-x Behavior of the Nonsinglet Polarized Structure Function g_2 in the Double Logarithmic Approximation

Abstract

The nonsinglet spin dependent structure function $g_2(x,Q^2)$ is studied at small x within the double logarithmic approximation of perturbative QCD. Both positive and negative signature contributions are considered, and we find a power-like growth in $1/x$. We discuss how our result fits into the Wandzura-Wilczek relation.
