%0 Journal Article %T High twist contribution to the longitudinal structure function $F_L$ at high $x$ %A Alekhin Sergey %J Physics %D 1999 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s100520000179 %X We performed NLO QCD fit of combined SLAC/BCDMS/NMC DIS data at high $x$. Model independent x-shape of high twist contribution to structure function $F_L$ is extracted. Twist-4 contribution is found to be in fair agreement with the predictions of infrared renormalon model. Twist-6 contribution exhibits weak tendency to negative values, although in the whole is compatible with zero within errors. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9902241v1
