The current status of deep inelastic scattering is briefly reviewed. We discuss future theoretical developments desired and measurements needed to further complete our understanding of the picture of nucleons at short distances.
Materials with interesting physical properties are often designed based on our understanding of the target physical effects. The physical properties can be either explicitly observed ("apparent") or concealed by the perceived symmetry…
Results from the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA on deep inelastic scattering are reviewed. The data lead to a consistent picture of a steep rise in the F_2 structure function and in the gluon density within the proton. Important new…
