The ratio of the proton's elastic electromagnetic form factors, G(E(p))/G(M(p)), was obtained by measuring P(t) and P(l), transverse longitudinal recoil proton polarization, respectively. For e-->p-->ep-->, G(E(p))/G(M(p)) is proportional to P(t)/P(l). Simultaneous measurement P(l) in a polarimeter provides good control systematic uncertainty. results for show decrease as Q2 increases from 0.5 3.5 GeV2, indicating first time definite difference spatial distribution charge magnetization...
The spin structure function of the neutron gn1 has been determined over range 0.03<x<0.6 at an average Q2 2 (GeV/c)2 by measuring asymmetry in deep inelastic scattering polarized electrons from a 3He target energies between 19 and 26 GeV. integral is found to be F10gn1(x)dx=-0.022±0.011. Earlier reported proton results together with Bjorken sum rule predict F10gn1(x)dx=-0.059±0.019.Received 1 April 1993DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.71.959©1993 American Physical Society

The genetic algorithm (GA) is a powerful technique that implements the principles nature uses in biological evolution to optimize multidimensional nonlinear problem. GA works especially well for problems with large number of local extrema, where traditional methods (such as conjugate gradient, steepest descent, and others) fail or, at best, underperform. field accelerator physics, among others, abounds which lend themselves optimization via GAs. In this paper, we report on successful...

Fits world data without a possible are agreement Bjorken sum rule, but Δq substantially less than quark-parton model expectation.
