Measurement of the 3He Spin-Structure Functions and of Neutron (3He) Spin-Dependent Sum Rules at 0.035<Q^2<0.24 GeV^2
2019
The spin-structure functions g_1 and g_2, and the spin-dependent partial cross-section \sigma_{TT} have been extracted from the polarized cross-sections differences, \Delta \sigma_{||}(\nu,Q^2) and \Delta \sigma_{\perp}(\nu,Q^2) measured for the 3He(e,e')X reaction at Jefferson Lab. Polarized electrons with energies from 1.147 to 4.404 GeV were scattered at angles of 6^o and 9^o from a longitudinally or transversely polarized 3He target. The data cover the kinematic regions of the quasi-elastic, resonance and beyond. From the extracted spin-structure functions, the first moments \Gamma_1(Q^2), \Gamma_2(Q^2) and I_{TT}(Q^2) are evaluated with high precision for the neutron in the Q^2 range from 0.035 to 0.24 GeV^2. Finally, these low Q^2 results are used to test chiral perturbation theory calculations.
