Abstract
Introduction
Physics Motivation
Tamuna will have a rough draft of this by Friday July 31,2009.
In semi-inclusive scattering experiment, where the scattered electron and one or more hadrons in coincidence are detected, provides a powerful tool for an understanding the structure of nucleons.
Experimental Setup
Tamuna will finish this section by Friday July 31, 2009
The EG1 experiment at Jefferson Lab used five different targets during their polarized structure function measurement program. The polarized NH3 and ND3 targets were designed and built by collaboration of the Italian Istituto di Fisica Nucleare, TJNAF, Oxford instruments and the University of Virginia. The solid targets(NH3 and ND3) were polarized using the method of Dynamic Nuclear Polarization[]. A 5 Tesla magnet establish the hyperfine splittings needed to polarize the target material using X Ghz RF waves. The polarization was monitored by pickup coils around the target using standard NMR techniques. Three other targets, C12, liquid He4 and frozen N15 were used to employ several methods for removing the Nitrogen contributions to the measured structure functions made using NH3 and ND3.
