Abstract
Self-similar properties of proton structure in the kinematic
region of low values
of the Bjorken variable
x
are introduced and studied numerically. A description
of the
proton structure function
F2(x,Q2) reflecting self-similarity is proposed
with a
few parameters which are fitted to recent HERA data. The specific
parametrisation provides an excellent description of the data
which cover
the region of four momentum transfer squared
, and of the Bjorken
variable
x
.
