We consider the interaction of the partonic fluctuation of a scalar “photon” with an external color field to calculate the leading and next-to-leading order gluon distribution of the proton following the work done by Dosch-Hebecker-Metz-Pirner. We relate these gluon distributions to the short and long distance behavior of the cross section of an adjoint dipole scattering off a proton. The leading order result is a constant, while the next-to-leading order result shows a \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$\ln(1/x)$\end{document} enhancement at small x. To get numerical results for the gluon distributions at the initial scale Q20 = 1.8 GeV2, we compute the adjoint dipole-proton cross section in the loop-loop correlation model. Quark distributions at the same initial scale are parameterized according to Regge theory. We evolve quark and gluon distributions to higher Q2 values using the DGLAP equation and compute charm and proton structure functions in the small-x region for different Q2 values.
