Physics Motivation: Measurment of the Neutron d2

    E06-014 will measure σ03He,as well as, the parrallel and perpendicular asymmetries (A||3He, A3He), inorder to extract the g2 structure function. The measurments will take place in the deep inelastic quark region with 0.2≤ x ≤0.7 and 2≤ Q2 ≤ 6 GeV2. The higher twist piece of the spin structure function will then be extracted, allowing for the evaluation of the quantity d2n = ∫x2(2g1 + 3g2)dx. d2n is related to the twist three matrix element which represents the quark-gluon correlations within the nucleon, and connects the response of the electric and magnetic color fields to the polarization of the nucleon.
