Abstract

In the kinematic region of small x and large Q² in deep inelastic scattering, presently being explored by HERA, we present an analysis of the evolution of the longitudinal structure function F_L^p(x, Q²) in the double scaling limit of Ball and Forte. We fit the evolution to a 1/x^λ behaviour and extract the value of λ. We also study the behaviour of R=F₂/2xF₁ -1. We present comparisons of both F_L and R with the corresponding MRS fits in this region of x and Q².
