Left-right single-spin asymmetries are measured in inclusive deep inelastic scattering at HERMES, with the goal of searching for a 2-photon exchange signal in the range 0.004 < x < 0.9, 0.1 < g^ < 20 GeV^. In two separate regions, for Q^ > 1 GeV^ and Q^ < 1 GeV^, and for both electron and positron beams, the asymmetries are found to be consistent with zero showing that within the uncertainties no signal is detected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
