Lecture

Partons and Hadrons: Strong Force and Deep Inelastic Scattering

Description

This lecture covers the concepts of partons and hadrons, explaining how the strong force weakens at high energy and short distances. It delves into the prediction of parton models in deep inelastic scattering, where the momentum fraction exchanged between lepton and proton becomes energy-independent. The lecture also discusses the processes of elastic and inelastic scattering, emphasizing the inclusive final state and the Bjorken scaling. It concludes with the implications of Bjorken scaling on the structure of nucleons and the distribution functions of partons.
