Abstract

By remaining strictly within the confines of QCD, i.e., \it without invoking the parton model or any other exogenous element, we identify and resum perturbatively to leading order, along with a correction term, enhanced radiative gluon contributions to the Drell-Yan type (qq pair annihilation) and deep-inelastic-scattering type (eq→ eq+X) cross-sections. The key feature of the adopted approach is the recasting of QCD in terms of a space-time mode of description, which employs a path-integral formulation of field theories, as originally implied in works of Fock, Feynman and Schwinger.
