INELASTIC ELECTRON-PROTON AND y-PROTON SCATTERING, ANDTHESTRUCTUREOFTHENUCLEON*

aA model for highly inelastic electron-nucleon scattering at high energies is studied and compared with existing data. This model envisages the proton to be composed of point-like constituents (“partons”) from which the electron scatters incoherently. We propose that the model be tested by observing y-rays scattered inelastically in a similar way from the nucleon. The magnitude of this inelasti...

Direct Extraction of Alignment Moments from Inelastic Scattering Images.

We present a novel means of analyzing velocity-map images of angular momentum polarization in inelastic scattering. In this approach, linear combinations of angular distributions obtained by integrating select regions of images for two probe laser polarizations directly yield the alignment-free differential cross sections and the differential alignment moments. No fitting is needed in the analy...

Connection between Inelastic Proton-proton Reactions and Deep Inelastic Electron Scattering*

Following the idea that the electromagnetic and nuclear distributions behave similarly for large momentum transfers (as introduced by Wu and Yang and further developed by A.barbanel, Drell and Gilman) we examine the possibility of relating the deep inelastic electron scattering to large momentum transfer and high energy inelastic protonproton reactions.

Direct determination of the gluon density in the proton from jet cross sections in deep-inelastic scattering

A QCD analysis of jet production in deep-inelastic scattering is presented. The studies are based on recent measurements of jet cross sections in the H1 experiment at HERA which are directly sensitive to the gluon density in the proton. The inclusion of H1 data on the inclusive deep-inelastic scattering cross section enables us to perform a consistent, simultaneous determination of the quark an...
