Abstract
We show that two dimensional QCD can, to a good approximation, describe the hadronic structure functions measured in Deep Inelastic Scattering. We transform this theory into a new form, Quantum HadronDynamics (QHD), whose semi-classical approximation is closer to nature. The Baryon is then a topological soliton, and its structure function can be predicted by a variational principle. This prediction can be tested by comparison with measurements of neutrino scattering cross-sections.
