With a high-intensity highly-polarized 6 GeV electron beam, and a high-density polarized 3 He target, we have carried out a number of experiments to study the neutron spin structure at Hall A in Jefferson Lab. Taking advantage of the high luminosity of Jefferson Lab, we completed two inclusive deep-inelastic-scattering experiments this summer. In the first precision measurements were made of the spin asymmetry [Formula: see text] in the valence quark (high Bjorken x) region, and in the second higher-twist effects were studied via precision measurements of [Formula: see text]. Physics motivation and preliminary results from the first experiment will be presented and discussed. I will also present nearly final results from an earlier experiment, which measured the generalized GDH sum for the neutron in the Q 2 range of 0.1 to 1 GeV 2. Planned near-term experiments will be briefly discussed.

In this paper, the polarized neutron structure function [Formula: see text] in the [Formula: see text] nucleus is investigated and an analytical solution based on the Laplace transform method for [Formula: see text] is presented. It is shown that the neutron spin structure function can be extracted directly from the polarized nuclear structure function of [Formula: see text]. The nuclear corrections due to the Fermi motion of the nucleons as well as the binding energy considerations are taken into account within the framework of the convolution approach and the polarized structure function of [Formula: see text] nucleus is expressed in terms of the spin structure functions of nucleons and the light-cone momentum distribution of the constituent nucleons. Then, the numerical results for [Formula: see text] are compared with experimental data of the SMC and HERMES collaborations. We found that there is an overall good agreement between the theory and experiments.
