Abstract

Deep inelastic scattering from a polarized spin-one target yields qualitatively new information which is not available in the spin-half case. Among several new structure functions, one, b 1( x), is leading twist in QCD. It can be measured with an unpolarized beam. b 1( x) is small and calculable for a weakly bound collection of nucleons, and therefore its measurement would provide a clear signature for exotic components in a spin-one nucleus.
