Gottfried Keller as a Democratic Idealist

Thomas Hodgkin: medical immortal and uncompromising idealist.

Anomalous Evolution of the Gottfried Sum

We discuss nonperturbative QCD evolution of nonsinglet nucleon structure functions, with particular application to the Gottfried sum. We show that the coupling of the quark partons to bound state mesons leads to nonperturbative contributions to the Altarelli– Parisi equations which, due to the axial anomaly, result in a strong scale dependence of nonsinglet structure functions for values of Q a...

What Kind of Idealist Was Leibniz ?

By no means, however, has any consensus been reached with regard to this issue. I think one important reason for this failure in agreement has to do with how one goes about understanding a related con...
