We report on recently published experimental results on spin sum rules, and particularly on the generalized spin polarizabilities $\gamma_0(Q^2)$ (for both the proton and neutron) and $\delta_\mathrm{LT}(Q^2)$ (for the neutron). The data…
The status of the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rules for polarized inclusive photo-production on nucleons is reviewed. It is shown that results from currently available data compare favorably with an estimate based on an extended current…
We examine the energy dependence of single-meson photoproduction as it contributes to the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule. For photon energies above approximately 1 GeV, through the full resonance region, this contribution dominates…
The contribution of the $G_2$ structure function to polarized deep inelastic scattering is slightly redefined in order to avoid kinematical zeros. Its strong $Q^2$-dependence implied by the Burkhardt-Cottingham (BC) sum rule naturally…
We present new experimental results of the $^3$He spin structure function $g_2$ in the resonance region at $Q^2$ values between 1.2 and 3.0 (GeV/c)$^2$. Spin dependent moments of the neutron were then extracted. Our main result, the…
We calculate the nucleon parameters in nuclear matter using the QCD sum rules method. The radiative corrections to the leading operator product expansion terms are included, with the corrections of the order \alpha_s beyond the logarithmic…
We study the $Q^2$ variation of the first moment of the nucleon's spin-dependent structure function $G_1$. As $Q^2 \rightarrow 0$ the moment is determined by the low energy theorem for Compton scattering. In the deep-inelastic region the…
We obtain the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon, in the space-like region, using three-point function Finite Energy QCD Sum Rules. The QCD calculation is performed to leading order in perturbation theory in the chiral limit, and…
We present the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD analysis of the Gross-Llewellyn Smith (GLS) sum rule in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering, taking into account dimension-two, twist-four power correction. We discuss in detail the…
In this short note the QED extension of the nucleon spin sum rule is considered. To this end, the leading-order (LO) QED evolution kernels for the quark/gluon helicity and orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) distributions are calculated, as well…
We compare momentum sum rules from unpolarized electroproduction and the spin sum rule for $g_1$ in polarized electroproduction, and their $Q^2$ evolution in the framework of the operator product expansion. Second order effects in…
Measuring the spin structure of protons and neutrons tests our understanding of how they arise from quarks and gluons, the fundamental building blocks of nuclear matter. At long distances the coupling constant of the strong interaction…
Polarized photon structure can be studied in the future polarized $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliding-beam experiments. We investigate the spin-dependent structure function of the virtual photon $g_1^{\gamma}(x,Q^2,P^2)$, in perturbative QCD for…
Phenomenological parameterizations of proton and neutron polarized structure functions, g1p and g1n, are developed for x > 0.02 using deep inelastic data up to ~ 50 (GeV/c)**2 as well as available experimental results on photo- and…
We construct a simple two-phase model of the nucleon structure functions valid for both small and large Q^2 and in the broad range of Bjorken x. The model incorporates hadron dominance at small x and Q^2 and parton model at large Q^2. The…
We present a Next-to-Leading order perturbative QCD analysis of world data on the spin dependent structure functions $g_1^p, g_1^n$, and $g_1^d$, including the new experimental information on the $Q^2$ dependence of $g_1^n$. Careful…
We estimate the nuclear medium modifications of the quark contribution to the bound nucleon spin sum rule, J^{q*}, as well as the separate helicity, \Delta \Sigma*, and the angular momentum, L^{q*}, contributions to J^{q*}. For the…
The strong interaction is not well understood at low energy, or for interactions with low momentum transfer $Q^2$, but one of the clearest insights we have comes from Chiral Perturbation Theory ($\chi$PT). This effective treatment gives…
The spin structure functions g_1 for the proton and the deuteron have been measured over a wide kinematic range in x and Q2 using 1.6 and 5.7 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons incident upon polarized NH_3 and ND_3 targets at Jefferson…
An improved version of a recently developed quark model approach to vector meson photoproduction is applied to the investigation of contributions of vector meson photoproduction to the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule. We find that the…
