When I studied the quarks, no one mentioned the Richard Feynman's Parton Model! Do you know? Who should I ask? Who is the best person, to speak to? Light in, Light out.
The best thing to do would be to read a real book about quarks. That should solve your problem pretty easily.
I bet Feynman is rolling over in his grave Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! The parton model is an accomplishment of effective filed theory: I don't think that Feynman really cared what the ``partons'' were. The triumph of the parton model is that quarks don't matter when doing nuclear physics. Anyway, Halzen and Martin have a good book which studies that parton model in some detail, called ``Quarks and Leptons'' or something.
I remember the parton model being discussed in my Standard Model textbook, and it even pops up in Peskin & Schroeder's QFT book in the section on QCD. One doesn't learn how to operate a plasma torch before learning how to plug it in, and one doesn't learn about partons by attending a series of public lectures vaguely sketching out some ideas about quarks.
For me, not knowing about Parton functions, I don't think so. I'm learning new things everyday, I hope he would be proud of me. Look on the bright side, he should be dancing and celebrating haven't you heard there is a new 'improved' version of 'his' famous Double slit experiment. Light in, Light out.
