Description
The intriguing phenomenon of quark-hadron duality reflects the non-trivial relationship between observables at low energies in the region dominated by resonances and those in the deep inelastic
scattering regime: averaged over the appropriate energy intervals the
behavior of low-energy observables mimics that of high-energy, deep
inelastic scattering ones. Quark-hadron duality has been intensively studied as it contains information about the relationship between the QCD confinement and asymptotic freedom, about the transition between the perturbative and non-perturbative regimes in QCD. In this talk I will give an overview of the experimental signatures of quark-hadron duality and of theoretical approaches to understanding this phenomenon.
