We discuss a few examples of structure functions for polarized, semi-inclusive scattering processes to show the richness of structure. Then we indicate how polarization and particle production can be used to study the quark and gluon…
We define and study hard ``semi-exclusive'' processes of the form $A+B \to C + Y$ which are characterized by a large momentum transfer between the particles $A$ and $C$ and a large rapidity gap between the final state particle $C$ and the…
