Leading Neutrons at HERA

  • 1. MPI for Nuclear Physics, Heidelberg (Germany)

Description

Leading neutron production measurements from the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA are presented and compared to models. Standard string fragmentation models do not describe the data. Models including also baryon production via virtual meson exchange and accounting for absorption give a good description of the data. In the exchange picture, leading neutron data are used to extract the pion structure function.
