On Combining High and Low Q**2 Information on the Polarized Parton Densities
We draw attention to some problems in the combined use of high-Q^2 deep
inelastic scattering (DIS) data and low-Q^2 hyperon \beta-decay data in the
determination of the polarized parton densities. We explain why factorization
schemes like the JET or AB schemes are the simplest in which to study the
implications of the DIS parton densities for the physics of the low-Q^2 region.Comment: 10 pages, LaTeX, minor corrections made in Section 4, a reference

Constraints on "Second Order Fixed Point" QCD from the CCFR Data on Deep Inelastic Neutrino-Nucleon Scattering
The results of LO {\it Fixed point} QCD (FP-QCD) analysis of the CCFR data
for the nucleon structure function are presented. The
predictions of FP-QCD, in which the Callan-Symanzik function admits a
{\it second order} ultraviolet zero at are in good
agreement with the data. Constraints for the possible values of the
function parameter regulating how fast tends to its
asymptotic value are found from the data. The corresponding
values of are also determined. Having in mind our recent " First
order fixed point" QCD fit to the same data we conclude that in spite of the
high precision and the large kinematic range of the CCFR data they
cannot discriminate between QCD and FP-QCD predictions for .Comment: 8 pages, LaTe
EAS fluctuation approach to primary mass composition investigation
The analysis of muon and electron fluctuation distribution shapes by statistical method of invers problem solution gives the possibility to obtain the relative contribution values of the five main primary nuclei groups. The method is model-independent for a big class of interaction models and can give good results for observation levels not too far from the development maximum and for the selection of showers with fixed sizes and zenith angles not bigger than 30 deg
