Proton Spin Structure in the Resonance Region

We have examined the spin structure of the proton in the region of the nucleon resonances (1.085 GeV<W<1.910 GeV) at an average four momentum transfer of Q²=1.3 GeV². Using the Jefferson Lab polarized electron beam, a spectrometer, and a polarized solid target, we measured the asymmetries A_∥ and A_⊥ to high precision, and extracted the asymmetries A₁ and A₂, and the spin structure functions g₁ and g₂. We found a notably nonzero A_⊥, significant contributions from higher-twist effects, and only weak support for polarized quark-hadron duality.
