Abstract

The asymmetry in the scattering of longitudinally po1arize.d electrons by nucleons is considered in the context of gauge theories of the weak and electromagnetic interactions. The predictions of a variety of gauge groups and assignments of fermion representations of present interest are given for deep inelastic scattering, elastic scattering, and A electroproduction. It is shown that a combination of the three experiments carried out to a few parts in lo5 at Q2 - 1Gev2/c2, can distinguish between various SU(2) x U(1) models and between various classes of models based on larger gauge groups.
