Rutherford's Legacy in Particle Physics

COFFEE_KLATCH · Invited

Abstract

Rutherford's legacy of employing scattering experiments to probe structure has been crucial to advancing our understanding of sub-atomic physics. This talk will describe the role of inelastic electron and neutrino scattering in uncovering the quark sub-structures of the proton and neutron.
