Abstract
We predict the rate of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) events containi ng an identified forward pi(0) that is expected in the experiments at the DESY electron-proton collider HERA, in order to see if this proces s can be used as an indicator of the underlying small x dynamics. We d etermine the background due to deep inelastic events containing forwar d photons which are fragments of the forward jet. We compare the DIS pi(0) cross section with that of the DIS + parent jet process.
