Low x Behaviour of the Isovector Nucleon Polarized Structure Function and the Bjorken Sum Rule

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

The combination g_1^p(x) - g_1^n(x) is derived from SLAC data on polarized proton and deuteron targets, evaluated at Q^2 = 10 GeV^2, and compared with the results of SMC experiment. The agreement is satisfactory except for the points at the three lowest x, which have an important role in the SMC evaluation of the l.h.s. of the Bjorken sum rule.
