New structure function results from H1 are presented. The measurements cover a huge kinematical range for Q^2, the four momentum transfer squared, from 0.35, GeV^2 to 30,000, GeV^2, and for Bjorken x between \sim 5\cdot 10^{-6} and 0.65. At…
We summarise existing experimental and theoretical knowledge on the structure function $F_2$ in the region of low $Q^2$ and low $x$. The constraints on the behaviour of structure functions in the limit $Q^2=0$ are listed. Phenomenological…
We summarize the developments on the structure of the proton that were studied at the Workshop on "HERA Physics" that was held in Durham in September 1995. We survey the latest structure function data; we overview the QCD interpretations of…
Recently the H1 collaboration has published a ``determination'' of the structure function F_L(x,Q^2) at low x. I address the question of how reliable this determination really is. I argue that it is in fact a consistency check of a given…
