Precision measurement of the deuteron spin structure function
We report on a high-statistics measurement of the deuteron spin structure function g[sup d][sub 1] at a beam energy of 29 GeV in the kinematic range 0.029 < x < 0.8 and 1 < Q2 < 10 (GeV/c)2. The integral Gamma [sup d][sub 1] = (integral)[sup 1][sub 0]g[sup d][sub 1]dx evaluated at fixed Q2 = 3 (GeV/c)2 gives 0.042 ± 0.003(stat) ± 0.004(syst). Combining this result with our earlier measurement of g[sup p][sub 1], we find Gamma [sup p][sub 1]- Gamma [sup n][sub 1] = 0.163 ± 0.010(stat) ± 0.016(syst), which agrees with the prediction of the Bjorken sum rule with O( alpha [sup 3][sub s]) corrections, Gamma [sup p][sub 1]- Gamma [sup n][sub 1] = 0.171 ± 0.008. We find the quark contribution to the proton helicity to be Delta q = 0.30 ± 0.06
Measurements of R=sigma_L/sigma_T for 0.03<x<0.1 and Fit to World Data
Measurements were made at SLAC of the cross section for scattering 29 GeV
electrons from carbon at a laboratory angle of 4.5 degrees, corresponding to
0.03<x<0.1 and 1.3<Q^2<2.7 GeV^2. Values of R=sigma_L/sigma_T were extracted in
this kinematic range by comparing these data to cross sections measured at a
higher beam energy by the NMC collaboration. The results are in reasonable
agreement with pQCD calculations and with extrapolations of the R1990
parameterization of previous data. A new fit is made including these data and
other recent results.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, late
