Abstract
The first part of this thesis is devoted to a space-time analysis of deep inelastic scattering fran protons at rest. Techniques are developed for identifying important space-time regions. These are then applied to obtain a space-time picture of deep inelastic scattering in the leading logarithmic approximation of QCD. Physical mechanisms responsible for the space-time picture are discussed.
In the second part of this thesis we report on the observation of elastic w photoproduction fran hydrogen by Fermilab Experiment-4~1. The W was detected via its decay into the pi+pi-pi0 channel. Measurements of the energy, nanentum transfer, and angular dependence of the cross section have been maCle for photon energies between 6~ and 225 GeV.
