The Spin structure of the proton
Nov, 2004Citations per year
Abstract:
This article reviews our present understanding of the QCD spin structure of the proton. We first outline the proton spin puzzle and its possible resolution in QCD. We then review the present and next generation of experiments to resolve the proton's spin-flavour structure, explaining the theoretical issues involved, the present status of experimental investigation, and the open questions and challenges for future investigation.- 12.38.-t
