Abstract

We have measured the spin-dependent structure function g₁ ^p of the proton in deep inelastic scattering of polarized muons off polarized protons, in the kinematic range 0.003 < x < 0.7 and 1 GeV² < Q² < 60 GeV². Its first moment, ∫₀ ¹ g₁ ^p(x)dx, is found to be 0.136±0.011 (stat.)± 0.011 (syst.) at Q² = 10GeV². This value is smaller than the prediction of the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule by two standard deviations, and is consistent with previous measurements. A combined analysis of all available proton, deuteron and neutron data confirms the Bjorken sum rule to within 10% of the theoretical value.

The spin dependent structure functions of the nucleon, gl and g2, can be measured in polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering \[ 1 \]. Measurements of gl for the proton and the neutron allow us to test a fundamental QCD sum rule, derived by Bjorken \[2\], and to study the internal spin structure of the nucleon.

Its first moment, ∫0 1 g1 p(x)dx, is found to be 0.136±0.011 (stat.)± 0.011 (syst.) at Q2 = 10GeV2. This value is smaller than the prediction of the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule by two standard deviations, and is consistent with previous measurements.
