The link between BFKL physics and twist-two operators involves an analytical continuation in the spin of the operators away from the physical even integer values. Typically this is done only after obtaining an analytical result for integer…
Available analyses on moments of the spin structure function g_1 use different methods and are barely consistent with each other. We present a higher twist analysis of Gamma_1^p using a method consistent with the studies of Gamma_1^n and…
