Research: My research interests lie in furthering our understanding of nuclear substructure by studying the strongly coupled gauge theory known as Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, I am investigating the scaling violations of the moments of structure functions at low values of Q^2. These scaling violations include contributions from higher twist effects coming from the operator product expansion (OPE). Leading twist operators in the OPE reproduce the DGLAP evolution equations, while higher twist effects produce power corrections to the scaling behavior observed in the parton model of QCD. Physically these power corrections correspond to interactions among the quarks and gluons within the hadron. Understanding these correlations provide useful insight into the substructure of the target hadron. Recent Papers:
