Prospects for spin physics in semi-inclusive processes

Abstract

I discuss inclusive and semi-inclusive lepton-hadron scattering emphasizing the importance of polarization in order to study various single or double spin asymmetries and the importance of particle identification and angular resolution in the dectection of final state particles to study azimuthal asymmetries. The observables obtained in this way enable a detailed study of quark and gluon correlations in hadrons.
