Probing hadron structure by real and virtual photons

Abstract

The importance of subnuclear degrees of freedom in photon absorption and electron scattering by nuclei is discussed. After a short introduction into the basic properties of one-photon processes and a very brief survey on the nuclear response in the various regions of energy and momentum transfers, the particular role of subnuclear degrees of freedom in terms of meson and isobar degrees of freedom is considered. Their importance is illustrated by several reactions on the deuteron which are currently under study at c.w.\ electron machines like MAMI in Mainz.
