Abstract

It is shown that the nuclear effects playing a relevant role in Deep Inelastic Scattering of polarized electrons by polarized $^3$ He are mainly those arising from the effective proton and neutron polarizations generated by the $S'$ and $D$ waves in $^3$ He. A simple and reliable equation relating the neutron, $g_1^n$ , and $^3$ He, $g_1^3$ , spin structure functions is proposed. It is shown that the measurement of the first moment of the $^3$ He structure function can provide a significant check of the Bjorken Sum Rule.
