Jet Physics at HERA
Hans-Christian Schultz-Coulon
Abstract
Jet production in electron-proton collisions at HERA provides a unique testing ground for Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Apart from the determination of the strong coupling constant αs, ep jet data may especially be used to gain insight into the dynamics of the exchanged parton cascade, whose structure is probed by the high-ET dijet system; thus information on the parton content of the proton and (quasi-)-real and virtual photons is obtained. This report touches some of these aspects revealed in recent jet data from the HERA experiments which are testing perturbative QCD at the limits of applicability.
