W Analogous to the familiar angular distribution of scattering of sin ½ elementary articles in the CM frame: These ualitative features were verified in early (bubble chamber) high energy neutrino scattering exeriments. Gargamelle (CERN) Refined measurements reveal QCD corrections to the aroximate naïve arton model results. These are At HERA, the γ-z interference term also contribute, giving rise to more comlicated atterns for the angular (y) distribution. Features of the artonic interactions revealed by DI exeriments have firmly established that the leton robes interact rimarily with sin ½ uark artons inside the nucleons with coulings of the M. embodies in all modern QCD fits and global analyses. 1
