Abstract

Polarized lepton nucleon scattering experiments have access to six different spin structure functions and related sum rules. The spin distributions of the valence and sea quarks, of gluons and the quark’s angular momentum in the nucleon are subject of investigation in the 2nd generation spin experiments SMC, E-142, HERMES and HELP. The abilities and precisions of the experiments are compared. The HERMES experiment, having the most complete experimental program, is described in more detail.
