• ∆𝜎∥ is highly suppressed in the kinematic range where we are measuring 𝑔2 (2-8% of total contribution to 𝑔2).
• For kinematic settings where we will not measure ∆𝜎∥, EG4 data will be combined with our ∆𝜎⊥ data to calculate 𝑔2.
Motivation
• Measure the proton structure function, 𝑔2, in the low 𝑄2 region for the first time.

Motivation
• Measure the proton structure function, 𝑔2, in the low 𝑄2 region for the first time.
• Provides a unique opportunity to test the Burkhardt-Cottingham Sum Rule in the low 𝑄2 region.

The 0𝑡ℎ moment of 𝑔2 should
satisfy (for all 𝑄2):

• Good agreement with existing Neutron data.
• Some disagreement with existing proton data.
• More proton data is needed.
Motivation
• Measure the proton structure function, 𝑔2, in the low 𝑄2 region for the first time.
• Provides a unique opportunity to test the Burkhardt-Cottingham Sum Rule in the low 𝑄2 region.
• Benchmark test of Chiral Perturbation Theory by extracting the generalized longitudinal-transverse spin polarizability.

Summary
• The 𝑔2𝑝
Experiment ran very successfully in spring, 2012.
• New instrumentation and beam requirements (and fires) introduced many challenges to the running and analysis.
• A first pass of production data is complete and analysis is well underway!
• We hope to have offline asymmetries and cross-sections by spring of next year
• 𝑔2 calculation shortly after, possibly by summer, 2015.
