The asymptotic behaviour of parton distributions at small and large x
It has been argued from the earliest days of quantum chromodynamics that at asymptotically small values of x the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton behave as xαxα, where the values of αα can be deduced from Regge theory, while at asymptotically large values of x the PDFs behave as (1...
