Theoretical Analysis of Polarized Structure Functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We review the analysis of polarized structure function data using perturbative QCD at NLO. We use the most recent experimental data to obtain updated results for polarized parton distributions, first moments and the strong coupling. We also discuss several theoretical issues involved in this analysis and in the interpretation of its results. Finally, we compare our results with other similar analyses in the recent literature. Talks given by G. Altarelli and G. Ridolfi at the Cracow Epiphany Conference on Spin Effects in Particle Physics, January 9–11, 1998, Cracow, Poland. CERN-TH/98-61 March 1998 Royal Society University Research Fellow IBERDROLA visiting professor

Perturbative Evolution of Polarized Structure Functions
We review the perturbative evolution of the polarized structure functions g1 and their associated parton distribution functions, with particular emphasis on the anomalous coupling of the first moment of the polarized gluon distribution. We also describe the small x behaviour of polarized parton distributions, contrasting it with that of the unpolarized distributions. We then explain how this th...
متن کاملSpin Effects in Lepton-nucleon Scattering: a Theoretical Overview
The physics of polarized nucleons has received increasing interest in the past few years, as we had the opportunity to see during the Workshop. Experimental progress in this field has been impressive, and prospect for the next future are even more interesting. A description of the present status of the field on the experimental side is given in another chapter of these Proceedings; 1 here I wil...
متن کاملTHEORETICAL STUDIES OF CHANGES IN PROPERTIES OF 5-FLUORO-2-DEOXYURIDINE (FUDR) ANTICANCER DRUG BY ADSORPTION ON BORON NITRIDE NANOTUBE (5, 5-11)
Background & Aims: Drugs are highly active due to their many functional groups and can be easily destroyed by stomach acid and excreted before reaching target tissue. Thus, by encapsulating, a sheath is placed around drug to reduce reactivity of the drug due to stereo electronic resonance with nanotube and consequently drug stays longer in body. As a result, you can consume a smaller dose of dr...
متن کاملSpin-dependent structure functions of nuclei in the meson-nucleon theory.
A theoretical approach to the investigation of spin-dependent structure functions in deep inelastic scattering of polarized leptons off polarized nuclei, based on the effective meson-nucleon theory and operator product expansion method, is proposed and applied to deuteron and 3 He. The explicit forms of the moments of the deuteron and 3 He spin-dependent structure functions are * On leave from ...
متن کاملPolarized Parton Distributions from Charged–Current Deep-Inelastic Scattering and Future Neutrino Factories
We discuss the determination of polarized parton distributions from charged– current deep–inelastic scattering experiments. We summarize the next-to-leading order treatment of charged–current polarized structure functions, their relation to polarized parton distributions and scale dependence, and discuss their description by means of a next-to-leading order evolution code. We discuss current th...
