Abstract
Hard scattering in p-p collisions was discovered at the CERN ISR in 1972, by the method of leading particles, which proved that the partons of Deeply Inelastic Scattering strongly interacted with each other. Further ISR measurements utilizing inclusive single or pairs of hadrons established that high pT particles are produced from states with two roughly back-to-back jets which are the result of scattering of constituents of the nucleons as described by Quantum Chromodynamics. These techniques, which are the only practical method to study hard-scattering and jet phenomena in Au+Au collisions at RHIC, will be reviewed.
