O(ALPHA) QED CORRECTIONS TO NEUTRAL CURRENT POLARIZED DEEP-INELASTIC LEPTON-NUCLEON SCATTERING

摘要

The O(alpha) leptonic QED corrections to neutral current polarized deep-inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering are calculated in leptonic variables both for the case of longitudinal and transverse nucleon polarization. The results of the complete calculation are compared with the corresponding leading log expressions. Numerical results are presented for the corrections in the kinematic range of the HERMES experiment and possible future polarized proton beam experiments at HERA. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
