Abstract
Measurements of the proton structure function F<sub>2</sub> for 0.6 < Q<sup>2</sup> < 17 GeV<sup>2</sup> and 1.2x10<sup>−5</sup> < x < 1.9x10<sup>−3</sup> from ZEUS 1995 shifted vertex data are presented. From ZEUS F<sub>2</sub> data the slopes <i>d</i>F<sub>2</sub>=<i>d</i> ln Q<sup>2</sup> at fixed <i>x</i> and <i>d</i> ln F<sub>2</sub>=<i>d</i> ln(1/<i>x</i>) for <i>x</i> < 0.01 at fixed Q<sup>2</sup> are derived. For the latter, E665 data are also used. The transition region in Q<sup>2</sup> is explored using the simplest non-perturbative models and NLO QCD. The data at very low Q<sup>2</sup> ≤ 0.65 GeV<sup>2</sup> are described successfully by a combination of generalised vector meson dominance and Regge theory. From a NLO QCD fit to ZEUS data the gluon density in the proton is extracted in the range 3x10<sup>−5</sup> < <i>x</i> < 0.7. Data from NMC and BCDMS constrain the fit at large <i>x</i>. Assuming the NLO QCD description to be valid down to Q<sup>2</sup> ∼ 1 GeV<sup>2</sup>, it is found that the <i>qq</i> sea distribution is still rising at small <i>x</i> and the lowest Q<sup>2</sup> values whereas the gluon distribution is strongly suppressed.
