The Strange Sea: S(x), S(x)
Inputs:
Multiplicities for K+ and K- from unpolarized deuteron
d2NDDIS/dxdQ2 = KU(x,Q2)[5 Q(x) + 2S(x)]
where Q(x) = u(x)+u(x)+d(x)+d(x) and S(x) = s(x) + s(x)
d2NDK/dxdQ2 = KU(x,Q2)[Q(x)DQK(z)dz + S(x) DSK(z)dz]
where DQK(z) = 4DuK(z)+DdK(z) and DSK(z) = 2DsK(z)
Inclusive and K+, K- asymmetries from polarized deuteron
A1,D d2NDIS/dxdQ2 = KLL(x,Q2)[5Q(x) + 2S(x)]

Conclusions
HERMES provides new constraints for S(x) at low Q2
HERMES made a first glimpse at various Transverse
Momentum dependent parton Distribution functions
TMDs offer a large amount of new information on
the nucleon structure They need to be explored in
detail by the next generation of experiments at
future high-luminosity e-N facilities
