Nukleonen sind von umfassender Bedeutung für die Elementarteilchenphysik. Als Proton und Neutron sind sie Bausteine aller Atomkerne. Erst das Verständnis der Struktur von Nukleonen erklärt viele wesentliche Eigenschaften der Kerne.
Mit diesem Buch gelingt es den Autoren Anthony W. Thomas (Universität von Adelaide, Australien) und Wolfram Weise (TU München, Deutschland), mehr als 40 Jahre der intensiven Forschung und den gegenwärtigen Stand der Ergebnisse zusammenzufassen. Erstmalig werden Erkenntnisse aus Theorie und Experiment zusammengeführt und so dem Leser ein Überblick über empirische Studien, theoretische Grundlagen und die verschiedenen Modelle geboten.
