2 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting  F L, F 1, F 2 and R fundamental Structure Function Measurements on Deuterium. - These structure functions provide us important information about internal structure of nucleon, i. e. distribution of quarks and gluons inside the nucleus.  Since these are fundamental measurements, they allow a variety of physics issues to be addressed, such as: ◦ Extraction of Structure Function and Moments of Neutron from this D2 data combining with existing Proton data(E94110) ◦ No neutron target exist. D2 is the simplest nuclei having neutron. 2 Physics Motivation

3 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting JAN05 ROSEN07 New data with higher Q 2 And new epsilon points for LT separation ROSEN07 experiment is the second phase of this experiment, the first phase was JAN05 experiment… Purely New data with high Q 2 above 3 GeV 3

4 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Experimental Setup Detector Hut HMS Target Scattering Chamber Electron Beam

5 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting HMS Detectors Drift Chambers, for Horizontal and vertical position determination. Vertically and Horizontally segmented hodoscopes, for triggering. Gas Cerenkov, for particle identification Electro-magnetic calorimeter, for particle identification

7 Structure Functions: F1, F2, FL 7 e e E E’ ν,Q 2 M W Calculable in QED Physics of interest (Nucleon Structure) Cross section is the measured quantity by the experiment. Structure functions (F1 and F2) have the information of the protons internal structure.

8 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Cross Section Extraction Method Monte Carlo ratio method is used to extract data cross sections: We can simulate data using a cross section model to obtain yield: And yield for the data can be written as: Taking the ratio to data and assuming that A MC = A data, yields MC ratio method: Where model is a fit to previous data (P. Bosted, M.E. Christy, Phys. Rev. C2007)

9 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Cross Sections (preliminary) 9 Different colors correspond to different central momentum setting of the HMS spectrometer. HMS acceptance is ±8%. Expect point to point uncertainty in ε less that 1.5% and overall normalization uncertainty less than 2%.

10 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting 10 longitudinalTransverse Rosenbluth Separation Where:  = flux of transversely polarized virtual photons  = relative longitudinal flux

11 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting L/T Separations ~ 300 L/T separations done

12 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting R, F 1, F 2 and F L Structure Functions Structure functions F 1, F 2 and F L extracted for Q 2 = 1,2,3 and 4 GeV. Systematic errors are not included yet. They are being calculated currently.

13 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Moments of the Structure Functions Cornwall-Norton moments of the SFs are defined as M 1 1 gives the quark charges. M 2 2 gives the total momentum of the quarks.

14 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Non-Singlet Moments Non-singlet moments can be determined where f represents the nuclear corrections.  Therefore measuring F 2 p, F L p, F 2 D and F L D allows to study non- singlet(valence) distributions and singlet (sea+gluon) distributions through F L together with F 2.  Gluon distributions can be extracted from F L since

15 Ibrahim H. Albayrak, Hampton University Group Meeting Summary All detector calibrations and background subtractions are done. Preliminary L/T separations have already been done. Determination of point-to-point and absolute uncertainties are being finalized. Final extraction of cross sections being finalized. Preliminary Structure functions extracted. Extraction of the moments of the structure functions will be next. Non-Singlet moments, n-p extraction from D2 and P in transverse and longitudinal structure functions. 15
