| Abstract: | The author analyses whether CEBAF with a 10 GeV beam could contribute significantly to the understanding of spin-dependent deep-inelastic scattering as well as semi-inclusive reactions. The main advantage of CEBAF is the much better attainable statistics, its great disadvantage its comparably low energy, which limits the accessible x-range to about 0.15 to 0.7. Within these constraints CEBAF could provide (1) high precision data which would be very valuable to understand the Q² dependence of the spin-dependent structure functions g₁(x) and G₂(x) and (2) the by far most precise determination of the third moments of g₁(x) and g₂(x) the latter of which the author argues to be related to a fundamental property of the nucleon. |
