Title: Polarized electron-deuteron deep-inelastic scattering with spectator nucleon tagging

Abstract

Background: Deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) on the polarized deuteron with detection of a proton in the nuclear breakup region (spectator tagging) represents a unique method for extracting the neutron spin structure functions and studying nuclear modifications. The tagged proton momentum controls the nuclear configuration during the DIS process and enables a differential analysis of nuclear effects. Such measurements could be performed with the future electron-ion collider (EIC) and forward proton detectors if deuteron beam polarization could be achieved. Purpose: Develop a theoretical framework for polarized deuteron DIS with spectator tagging. Formulate practical procedures for neutron spin structure extraction. Methods: A covariant spin density matrix formalism is used to describe general deuteron polarization in collider experiments (vector/tensor, pure/mixed). Light-front (LF) quantum mechanics is employed to factorize nuclear and nucleonic structure in the DIS process. A four-dimensional representation of LF spin structure is used to construct the polarized deuteron LF wave function and efficiently evaluate the spin sums. Free neutron structure is extracted using the impulse approximation and analyticity in the tagged proton momentum (pole extrapolation). Results: General expressions of the polarized tagged DIS observables in collider experiments are presented. The polarized deuteron LF spectral function and nucleon momentum distributions are characterized inmore »« less

The tagged proton momentum controls the nuclear configuration during the DIS process and enables a differential analysis of nuclear effects.

Free neutron structure is extracted using the impulse approximation and analyticity in the tagged proton momentum (pole extrapolation). Results: General expressions of the polarized tagged DIS observables in collider experiments are presented. The polarized deuteron LF spectral function and nucleon momentum distributions are characterized in analytic and numerical form. Practical procedures for neutron spin structure extraction from the tagged deuteron spin asymmetries are proposed. Conclusions: Spectator tagging provides new tools for precise neutron spin structure measurements. D-wave depolarization and nuclear binding effects can be eliminated through the tagged proton momentum dependence. The methods can be extended to tensor-polarized observables, spin-orbit effects, and diffractive processes.},

Electron-deuteron deep-inelastic scattering with spectator nucleon tagging and final-state interactions at intermediate $x$

Journal Article Strikman, M. ; Weiss, C. - Physical Review C

We consider electron-deuteron deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) with detection of a proton in the nuclear fragmentation region ("spectator tagging") as a method for extracting the free neutron structure functions and studying their nuclear modifications. Such measurements could be performed at a future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) with suitable forward detectors. The measured proton recoil momentum (≲ 100 MeV in the deuteron rest frame) specifies the deuteron configuration during the high-energy process and permits a controlled theoretical treatment of nuclear effects. Nuclear and nucleonic structure are separated using methods of light-front quantum mechanics. The impulse approximation (IA) to the tagged DIS cross sectionmore »« less

Neutron spin structure from e-3He scattering with double spectator tagging at the electron-ion collider

Journal Article Friščić, I. ; Nguyen, D. ; Pybus, J. R. ; ... - Physics Letters B

The spin structure function of the neutron is traditionally determined by measuring the spin asymmetry of inclusive electron deep inelastic scattering (DIS) off polarized ³He nuclei. In such experiments, nuclear corrections are significant and must be treated carefully in the interpretation of experimental data. Here we study the feasibility of suppressing model dependencies by tagging both spectator protons in the process of DIS off neutrons in ³He at the forthcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). This allows for a reconstruction of the momentum of the struck neutron to ensure it was nearly at rest in the initial state, thereby reducing sensitivity tomore »« less

Longitudinal spin asymmetries in polarized deuteron DIS with spectator tagging

Conference Cosyn, Wim ; Weiss, Christian - Proceedings of Science

Polarized electron-deuteron DIS with spectator proton tagging offers a way of measuring the neutron spin structure functions with maximal theoretical control of nuclear effects. We calculate the nuclear structure factors in the longitudinal double-spin asymmetries using methods of light-front nuclear structure. A unique feature of the spin-1 system is that spin asymmetries can be formed either relative to the cross section in all three spin states (lambda_d = +/-1, 0) or in the two maximum-spin states only (+/-1, involving tensor polarization). We find that the two-state deuteron spin asymmetry at small spectator proton momenta permits accurate extraction of the neutronmore »« less

DIS on Light Nuclei with Spectator Tagging: New Applications at Intermediate and Small x

Conference Weiss, Christian - EPJ Web Conf.

An Electron-Ion Collider would enable next-generation measurements of DIS on light nuclei (deuteron, 3He, ...) with detection of nucleons and fragments in the nuclear fragmentation region ("spectator tagging"). Such measurements allow one to control the nuclear configuration during the high-energy process and could greatly advance our understanding in several areas of partonic structure and QCD: (a) precision measurements of neutron structure functions (including spin) in electron-deuteron scattering with proton tagging, eliminating nuclear binding through on-shell extrapolation in the recoil proton momentum; (b) controlled studies of the nuclear modifications of quark and gluon densities (EMC effect, anti-shadowing), using the recoil momentummore »« less
Tagged spectator DIS off a polarized spin-1 target

Conference Cosyn, Wim ; Sargsian, Misak ; Weiss, Christian - Proceedings of Science

We discuss the process of deep-inelastic electron scattering (DIS) on the polarized deuteron with detection of a nucleon in the nuclear fragmentation region ('spectator tagging'). We cover (a) the general structure of the DIS cross section; (b) the structure functions of the process in the impulse approximation using deuteron light-front wave functions; (c) the extraction of free neutron structure by extracting the residue of observables at the free nucleon pole ('pole extrapolation'). As an application we consider the extraction of the free neutron structure function g1n through polarized electron scattering on the longitudinally polarized deuteron with proton tagging and on-shellmore »« less
