The Partonic Structure of the Proton 1

نویسنده

  • A. D. Martin
چکیده

We review the latest information that is available about the parton distributions of the proton, paying particular attention to the determination of the gluon. We briefly describe the various processes that have been advocated to be a measure of the gluon. We discuss the importance of the gluon to the description of the structure function F 2 at small x, with emphasis on the ln 1/x resummations.

We examine the current status of the extraction of the rate of partonic energy loss in nuclei from A dependent data. The advantages and difficulties of using the Drell-Yan process to measure the energy loss of a parton traversing a cold nuclear medium are discussed. The prospects of using relatively low energy proton beams for a definitive measurement of partonic energy loss are presented.

Diffraction and Low-Q Physics Including Two-Photon Physics

Recent experimental results on the partonic structure of the photon and on the color singlet exchange in strong interaction processes are reviewed. At the LEP e+e− and HERA ep colliders, complementary and consistent measurements have been achieved on the quarkgluon structure of quasi-real and virtual photons. At the HERA ep and Tevatron p̄p colliders, the quark-gluon configuration of the diffrac...

Soft Colour Interactions and Diffractive DIS

The basic ideas and some results of the semiclassical approach to diffractive DIS are briefly described. In the production of high-p⊥ jets boson-gluon fusion is predicted to be the dominant partonic process. The p⊥-spectrum and the two-jet invariant mass distribution provide a clear test of the underlying ‘hard’ partonic process and the ‘soft’ mechanism of colour neutralization. The events with...
