Abstract
The ZEUS and H1 collaborations have made the first direct measurements of the longitudinal proton structure function, FL, which is strongly correlated to the gluon density in the proton. The ZEUS collaboration have also extracted the structure function, F2, which, for the first time, has been done so at high y without any assumptions about FL.
