We extend the earlier suggested QCD-motivated model for the $Q^2$-dependence of the generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule which assumes the smooth dependence of the structure function $g_T$, while the sharp dependence is due to…

We calculate the forward spin-dependent photon-nucleon Compton amplitudes $S_1$ and $S_2$ as functions of photon energy $\nu$ and mass $Q^2$ at the next-to-leading (${\cal O}(p^4)$) order in chiral perturbation theory, from which we extract…
I discuss in this talk the physics of the $Q^2$ dependence of the $G_1(x,Q^2)$ structure function sum rule. For $Q^2>3$ GeV$^2$, the $Q^2$ variation is controlled by pure QCD radiative corrections. For $0.5<Q^2<3$ GeV$^2$, the twist-four…
