The Spin Structure of the Nucleon : Theoretical Overview

نویسنده

  • R. L. Jaffe
چکیده

I review what is known about the quark and gluon spin distributions in the nucleon. I discuss in some detail (a) the existence of sum rules for angular momentum; (b) the interpretation and possible measurement of the nucleon's transversity distributions; and (c) the uses of spin-dependent fragmentation functions.

I begin with a general discussion about importance of constructing a picture of the nucleon in terms of QCD degrees of freedom, emphasizing the role of spin structure functions. I then give a short overview on the theoretical and experimental status of the spin structure of the nucleon. Following that, I mention several upcoming experiments to measure the flavor and sea structure in polarized q...

New Measurements of Nucleon Structure from HERMES

Recent measurements of the spin-dependent deep inelastic scattering structure functions of the nucleon g p;n 1 (x) are presented. Theoretical diiculties with the traditional separation of the total integral ? p;n of the structure functions into contributions from quark avours is discussed. Techniques using the measurements of semi-inclusive asymmetries that allow direct separation of the avour ...

A theoretical overview of the concept of anxiety and its role on emotion regulation from the perspective of psychoanalysis from Freud's time to the present

Infants would be able to regulate emotion and manage anxiety merely through their intimate relationship with attachment figures they are emotionally in harmony with. This capability is essential for social, emotional, cognitive, and neurobiological development of children, and moreover, their ability to cope with anxiety predicts their success in future relationships. Thus, a theoretical overvi...

1 Fe b 20 09 Spin Structure of the Nucleon - Status and Recent Results

After the initial discovery of the so-called " spin crisis in the parton model " in the 1980's, a large set of polarization data in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering was collected at labs like SLAC, DESY and CERN. More recently, new high precision data at large x and in the resonance region have come from experiments at Jefferson Lab. These data, in combination with the earlier ones, all...
