چکیده

■ Abstract We review the study of the internal spin structure of the proton and neutron. High-energy scattering of polarized leptons by polarized protons, neutrons, and deuterons provides a measurement of the nucleon spin structure functions. These structure functions give information on the polarized quark contributions to the spin of the proton and the neutron and allow tests of the quark-parton model and quantum chromodynamics. We discuss the formalism of deep inelastic scattering of polarized leptons on polarized nucleons, the past decade of experimental progress, and future programs to measure the polarized gluon contribution to the proton spin.

We study numerically the electronic heat capacity, spin and charge current in a diffusive Superconductor-Ferromagnetic-Superconductor systems، with singlet superconducting leads and non-uniform ferromagnetic layer. Specially, we focus on ferromagnetic layer with domain wall and conical structures incorporation the spin-active interfaces. We investigate, how the 0-π transition is influenced by n...

(a New Proposal to Jeeerson Lab Pac18) Measurement of Neutron ( 3 He) Spin Structure Functions in the Resonance Region

We propose a precision extraction of the neutron spin structure function g 1 and the virtual photon asymmetry An1 in the resonance region over a moderate Q 2 range (up to Q = 4:2(GeV=c)) using a polarized He target. The Bloom-Gilman duality has been experimentally demonstrated for the spin independent structure functions down to small values of Q. The proposed experiment combined with Deep-Inel...

Efficient Immobilised TiO2 in Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) Membrane for Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue

Immobilised titanium dioxide (TiO2) in membrane structures has recently become attractive. This is due to the elimination of the separation step after the process of photocatalytic degradation. The efficiency of the TiO2 surface area exposed to UV light as the main important parameter needs to be considered. The immobilisation of TiO2 nanoparticles in the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane...

Structure Functions of Unstable Lithium Isotopes

We study both the spin-average and spin-dependent structure functions ofthe lithium isotopes, 6−11Li, which could be measured at RIKEN and othernuclear facilities in the future. It is found that the light-cone momentumdistribution of the valence neutron in the halo of 11Li is very sharp and sym-metric around y = 1, because of the weak binding. This implies that suchneutrons ...

Polarized structure functions of the deuteron

Physics of spin-1 hadron is an unexplored topic in the high-energy region although spin-1/2 physics has been well investigated in the last decade. It is important to test our knowledge of hadron spin structure in a quite different field of spin physics. We discuss tensor structure functions, which do not exist for the spin-1/2 nucleon, in lepton scattering and in hadron reactions such as the po...

Spin and Isospin Asymmetry, Equation of State and Neutron Stars

In the present work, we have obtained the equation of state for neutron star matter considering the in uence of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin state. We have also investigated the structure of neutron stars. According to our results, the spin asymmetry stiens the equation of state and leads to high mass for the neutron star.
