Abstract
A new method is presented of extracting kinematic variables in neutral current deeply inelastic scattering. It turns out that a determination of x and Q{sup 2} using the angles of the electron and current jet only is remarkably powerful. Also a method is worked out for determining x and Q{sup 2} that is insensitive to initial state radiation. Structure functions F{sub 2} and xF{sub 3} are extracted and the systematic errors are studied. The use of several (x,Q{sup 2}) reconstruction methods, each with different systematic errors will provide complementarity and redundancy for structure function analysis. (author). 7 refs.; 9 figs.
