Probing the Structure of Nucleons in the Resonance Region

Abstract

Status, open questions, and future prospects of the physics of excited nucleons are discussed. Emphasis is on the study of the structure of nucleons via measurements of their electromagnetic transition form factors, the search for "missing" resonances, the spin structure of the nucleon in the resonance region, and connections between the resonance and the deep-inelastic regimes.
