g_1 at low x and low Q^2 with Polarized ep Colliders

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-01-07 v1

Abstract

Measurements of g_1 at low x and low Q^2 are expected to provide a sensitive probe of the transition from Regge to perturbative QCD dynamics, offering a new testing ground for models of small x physics. We discuss the potential of polarized ep colliders (Polarized HERA and eRHIC) to investigate this physics --- varying Q^2 between 0.01 and 1 GeV^2 --- and to constrain the high-energy part of the Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov sum-rule for polarized photoproduction.
