Deep Inelastic Scattering provides an up-to-date, self-contained
account of deep inelastic scattering in high-energy physics,
intended for graduate students and physicists new to the subject.
It covers the classic results which led to the quark-parton model
of hadrons and the establishment of quantum chromodynamics as the
theory of the strong nuclear force, in addition to new vistas in
the subject opened up by the electron-proton collider HERA. The
extraction of parton momentum distribution functions, a key input
for physics at hadron colliders such as the Tevatron at Fermi Lab
and the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, is described in detail. The
challenges of the HERA data at 'low x' are described and possible
explanations in terms of gluon dynamics and other models outlined.
Other chapters cover: jet production at large momentum transfer and
the determination of the strong coupling constant, electroweak
interactions at very high momentum transfers, the extension of deep
inelastic techniques to include hadronic probes, a summary of fully
polarised inelastic scattering and the spin structure of the
nucleon, and finally a brief account of methods in searching for
signals 'beyond the standard model'.
