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…
We propose a means of distinguishing between gluon- and quark-seeded systems that may in principle be measured in deep inelastic lepton scattering. As a particular application, we discuss those HERA data on deep inelastic $ep$ scattering…
