The structure of the nucleon

Nuclear Theory 2017-08-23 v1

Abstract

These lectures give an introduction to the structure of the nucleon as seen with the electromagnetic probe. Particular emphasis is put on the form factors, the strangeness content, Compton scattering and polarizabilities, pion photo- and electroproduction, the spin structure and sum rules. The existing data are compared to predictions obtained from chiral perturbation theory, dispersion theory and effective Lagrangians.
