چکیده

Calculations are presented on the precision achievable for the measurement of nucleon spin structure functions using a 50 GeV polarized electron beam scattering off polarized proton, deuterium, and 3He targets. The main advantage of such a program is the high statistical precision of the measurements. The implications for testing QCD sum rules and studying the Q2 evolution of the nucleon spin structure functions are reviewed. +T Work supported by Department of Energy contract DE-AC03-76SF00515.

Measurement of Inclusive Proton Double-Spin Asymmetries and Polarized Structure Functions

PAGE The scattering of polarized electrons from a polarized proton target provides a means for studying the internal spin structure of the proton. The CLAS (CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer) EG1b experiment in Hall-B at Jefferson Laboratory measured double-spin inclusive and exclusive electron-nucleon scattering asymmetries using longitudinally polarized frozen NH3 and ND3 targets and a long...

اندازه‌گیری مشاهده‌پذیرهای کانال تجزیه سه‌جسمی برای بخشی از فضای فاز پراکندگی دوترون- دوترون در انرژی برنوکلئون

Information obtained from nucleus as a bound system of nucleons and from nucleon-nucleon scattering experiments is a strong tool for studying various aspects of nuclear forces. Deuteron-deuteron scattering as a four-nucleon system can provide useful information. So, scattering experiment of a polarized beam of deuteron with kinetic energy of65 MeV/nucleon from a liquid-deuterium target was done...

Measurement of the Neutron d 2 n Matrix Element : A linear Combination of the Electric and Magnetic Color

We propose to make a measurement of the spin-dependent scattering cross section for a longitudinally polarized electron beam off a transversely and longitudinally polarized He target. The measurement will cover excitation energies across the resonance and deep inelastic regions at constant 4-momentum transfer Q = 2 (GeV/c). We will extract the linear combination 2g1 + 3g2 of spin structure func...

Spin structure functions of the nucleon measured at SLAC

We have measured the spin structure functions gp2 and g d 2 over the kinematic range 0.02 x 0.8 and 0.6 Q 2 20 (GeV/c) by scattering 29.1 and 32.3GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from transversely polarized NH3 and LiD targets. The statistical errors are approximately three times smaller than previous measurements. Very preliminary results for xg2 are compared with the twist-2 Wandzura-Wi...

Measurement of Polarized Valence Quark Distribution Functions using Polarized Proton and Deuteron Targets

Semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering experiments using longitudinally polarized hydrogen (NH3) and deuterium (ND3) targets and a longitudinally polarized electron beam can be used to measure the ratio of the polarized valence quark distribution function to the unpolarized. Semi-inclusive scattering identifies an electron scattering experiment in which the scattered electron and one hadron a...
