Description

In 1992, the SMC obtained data to determine the deuteron spin structure function, g1d. A significant enhancement in the rate of polarization growths and the polarizations of twin targets, from 24% to more than 40%, was obtained. The technique involves the modulation of the ESR frequency. Thirty percent of the deuteron data (40% equivalent polarization) was obtained by the end of the 1992 run. A muon polarimeter, commissioned during the 1991 run, provided a measurement of the beam polarization, 82 ±6%
