[W2] = t = [W^] = -2. The assumption that with high energies and high momentum transfers the masses of the particles involved become unessential allows qualitative statements about the asymptotic behavior of structure functions to be made by the aid of the principle of scaling invariance [2—4]. According to this principle, the functions involved should be dependent upon dimensionless combinations of independent variables only. I n addition, the assumption is made t h a t because of the lack of dimensional quantities the dimensions (1.9) are expressed by an energy variable, e.g., variable v. Asymptotically, W1 should be dependent upon a dimensionless variables only, and it is appropriate t h a t os £ = - — v

Functions T7j0(£) are called scaling functions. For an experimental test of such an hypothesis it is appropriate to study deep inelastic scattering in the Bjorlcen region : v —> oo, q2^

In fact, the experiments described in [12] are in approximate agreement with the theoretically predicted behavior (1.11); certain characteristic deviations will be discussed later. • 1.2. The parton model

The observation that a behavior corresponding to the asymptotic relations (1.11) is consistent with the free field approximation proved to be of great importance for the theoretical treatment . By free field approximation is understood a calculation of W ^ in
