Low Q^2 measurements of the neutron and 3He spin structure

Conference · · Journal of Physics: Conference Series
OSTI ID:899226
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility experiment E97-110 was performed to provide a precise measurement of the extended Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integral and of moments of the neutron and of the {sup 3}He spin structure functions. The momentum transfer range 0.02 < 0.3 (GeV)/c{sup 2} will allow us to test predictions of Chiral Perturbation Theory, and check the GDH sum rule by extrapolating the integral to the real photon point. The data have been taken in Hall A using a highly polarized electron beam and a polarized {sup 3}He target. The status of the data analysis is discussed, and preliminary results are shown.
