Measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1(x) of the proton
Adams D, Adeva B, Arik E, et al. Measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1(x) of the proton. Phys.Lett. B. 1994;329(2-3):399-406.We have measured the spin-dependent structure function of the proton in deep inelastic scattering of polarized muons off polarized protons, in the kinematic range and 1\,\mbox{GeV}~2
. Its first moment, , is found to be 0.136 \pm 0.011\,(\mbox{stat.})\pm 0.011\,(\mbox{syst.}) at Q~2=10\,\mbox{GeV}~2. This value is smaller than the prediction of the Ellis--Jaffe sum rule by two standard deviations, and is consistent with previous measurements. A combined analysis of all available proton, deuteron and neutron data confirms the Bjorken sum rule to within of the theoretical value

Spin Asymmetry in Muon--Proton Deep Inelastic Scattering on a Transversely-Polarized Target
We measured the spin asymmetry in the scattering of 100 GeV
longitudinally-polarized muons on transversely polarized protons. The asymmetry
was found to be compatible with zero in the kinematic range ,
