How to get started with DIS

Papers and other Documents to get started with DIS

• A very nice early summary about HERA, with all the important kinematic variables Hera Physics.
• A very useful paper with a lot of equations on how to calculate things in DIS [1]
• The CTEQ tutorials
  • http://www.physics.smu.edu/~olness/cteqpp/
  • http://www.phys.psu.edu/~cteq/#Summer
• A short intro on how hard QCD processes are calculated is here: (slides 1,2, 4, ... 10)

Some detailed links

• a nice article on the running of apha_s

• Just in case you need a parametrisation for alphas here is a very nice article

  Parametrization of the QCD coupling in the Evolution Equations.

• There are two very nice unpolarized evolution packages available on the web:
  • QCD-PEGASUS by Andreas Vogt (can be downloaded from his Liverpool homepage) The paper is hep-ph/0408244.
  • HOPPET by Gavin Salam, which you can find here http://projects.hepforge.org/hoppet
