From the quark parton model to QCD

arXiv:2606.27618

Abstract

The quark parton model grew out of deeply inelastic scattering experiments. The parton model developed into a full theory, quantum chromodynamics, QCD. This article explains some of the physics issues encountered in connecting the parton model and QCD.
