High-energy photon interactions are discussed in terms of the hadronic structure of the
photon, which is expressed by means of a formulation which is akin to, but somewhat more …

In late 1967 thefirst of a long series of experiments on highly inelastic electron scattering
was startedat the two-mile accelerator at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) …

Abstract The Large Hadron–Electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep
inelastic scattering (DIS) to the energy and intensity frontier of particle physics. Exploiting …

We report new values of the proton and deuteron structure functions F2 (x, Q2) based on a
global analysis of eight SLAC experiments on deep inelastic ep and ed scattering. These …

We have carried out an experimental study of the neutron and proton deep-inelastic
electromagnetic structure functions. The structure functions were extracted from electron …

For massive-lepton pair production in meson-induced reactions, we use quantum
chromodynamics perturbation theory to predict that the decay angular distribution in the pair …

We report on measurements of the neutron spin asymmetries A 1, 2 n and polarized
structure functions g 1, 2 n at three kinematics in the deep inelastic region, with x= 0.33 …

The functions 8'& and W2 are called structure functions and depend on the properties of the
target system. As there are two polarization states of the virtual photon, transverse and …

HERA, the first electron-proton collider, has been delivering luminosity since 1992. It is the
natural extension of an impressive series of fixed-target lepton-nucleon scattering …

We review the present understanding of the spin structure of protons and neutrons, the
fundamental building blocks of nuclei collectively known as nucleons. The field of nucleon …
