Abstract

We study the Q 2 variation of the first moment of the nucleon's spin-dependent structure function G 1. As Q 2→0 the moment is determined by the low energy theorem for Compton scattering. In the deep-inelastic region the moment is calculated using twist expansion to order 1 Q 2 . Based on these limits, we construct a formula which smoothly interpolates between the two regions.
