Parametrising the proton structure function
Abstract
We show that simple parametrisations at small x of the proton structure function work so well in limited regions of the (x,Q2) plane because they are approximately "self-consistent" solutions of the QCD evolution equation. For a class of them, we predict their Q2 dependence and compare the result with experimental data.
