Very efficient data taking in 2005 HERMES data taking Data taking: efficiency > 98 % Spectrometer: in excellent shape Transverse polarized target: |PT| ~ 0.85 molecular frac. < 4% Main worry: PBl=+1 ~ 0.4 – 0.5 PBl=-1 ~ 0.3 - 0.4 Data taking: efficiency > 98 % Spectrometer: in excellent shape Transverse polarized target: |PT| ~ 0.85 molecular frac. < 4% 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005

  3. Naïve parton model Unpolarised structure fct. Gluons are important ! BUT Full description of Jq and Jg needs orbital angular momentum 1989 EMC measured S = 0.120 0.094 0.138 ± ± Sea quarks Dqs DG Spin Puzzle News on the spin structure of the nucleon 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005

  5. First complete separation of pol. PDFs without assumption on sea polarization Du(x) > 0 Polarised opposite to proton spin Polarised parallel to proton spin Du(x), Dd(x)~ 0 No indication forDs(x)<0 In measured range (0.023 – 0.6) Polarized Quark Densities Dd(x) < 0 good agreement with NLO-QCD 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005

  6. Need a longitudinal polarized deuterium target strange quark sea in proton and neutron identical fragmentation simplifies Kaon Asymmetry Inclusive Asymmetry This Work Kretzer KKP 1.20±0.06±0.03 1.103 1.111 All needed information can be extracted from data inclusive A1,d(x,Q2)and kaon AK1,d (x,Q2) double spin asym. Kaon fragmentation functions 1.43±0.36±0.15 0.392 0.150 Only assumptions used: isospin symmetry between proton and neutron charge-conjugation invariance in fragmentation Fit x-dependence of multiplicities using PDFs from CTEQ-6 Results for DQ and DS 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005

  7. Direct measurement of a8 = DQ – 2DS = 0.274 ± 0.039 (0.02<x<1) SU(3) value: a8 = 0.588 ± 0.033(0.12) Earlier HERMES conclusions of unpolarised strange sea confirmed factor 2 smaller error bars Results for DQ and DS 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005

  8. exclusive: all products of the reaction are detected missing energy (DE) and missing Mass (Mx) = 0 from DIS: HERMES ~0.3 The Hunt for Lq Study of hard exclusive processes leads to a new class of PDFs Generalized Parton Distributions possible access to orbital angular momentum 60th-PRC – DESY NOV. 2005
