We have measured the spin structure functions $g_1$ and $g_2$ of $^3$He in a double-spin experiment by inclusively scattering polarized electrons at energies ranging from 0.862 to 5.07 GeV off a polarized $^3$He target at a 15.5$^{circ}$ scattering angle. Excitation energies covered the resonance and the onset of the deep inelastic regions. We have determined for the first time the $Q^2$ evolution of $Gamma_1(Q^2)=int_0^{1} g_1(x,Q^2) dx$, $Gamma_2(Q^2)=int_0^1 g_2(x,Q^2) dx$ and $d_2 (Q^2) = int_0^1 x^2[ 2g_1(x,Q^2) + 3g_2(x,Q^2)] dx$ for the neutron in the range 0.1 GeV$^2$ $leq Q^2 leq $ 0.9 GeV$^2$ with good precision. $ Gamma_1(Q^2)$ displays a smooth variation from high to low $Q^2$. The Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule holds within uncertainties and $d_2$ is non-zero over the measured range.

We present data on the inclusive scattering of polarized electrons from a polarized He-3 target at energies from 0.862 to 5.06 GeV, obtained at a scattering angle of 15.5 degrees. Our data include measurements from the quasielastic peak, through the
resonance region, to the beginning of the deep inelastic regime, and were used to determine the spin difference in the virtual photoabsorption cross section. We extract the extended Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integral for the neutron in the range of 4-momentum transfer squared Q^2 of 0.1-0.9 GeV.
We present new experimental results of the $^3$He spin structure function $g_2$ in the resonance region at $Q^2$ values between 1.2 and 3.0 (GeV/c)$^2$. Spin dependent moments of the neutron were then extracted. Our main result, the resonance contrib
ution to the neutron $d_2$ matrix element, was found to be small at $<Q^2>$=2.4 (GeV/c)$^2$ and in agreement with the Lattice QCD calculation. The Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule for $^3$He and the neutron was tested with the measured data and using the Wandzura-Wilczek relation for the low $x$ unmeasured region. A small deviation was observed at $Q^2$ values between 0.5 and 1.2 (GeV/c)$^2$ for the neutron.
We report the first measurement of the double-spin asymmetry $A_{LT}$ for charged pion electroproduction in semi obreakdash-inclusive deep obreakdash-inelastic electron scattering on a transversely polarized $^{3}$He target. The kinematics focused on
the valence quark region, $0.16<x<0.35$ with $1.4<Q^{2}<2.7,textrm{GeV}^{2}$. The corresponding neutron $A_{LT}$ asymmetries were extracted from the measured $^{3}$He asymmetries and proton over $^{3}$He cross section ratios using the effective polarization approximation. These new data probe the transverse momentum dependent parton distribution function $g_{1T}^{q}$ and therefore provide access to quark spin-orbit correlations. Our results indicate a positive azimuthal asymmetry for $pi^{-}$ production on $^{3}$He and the neutron, while our $pi^{+}$ asymmetries are consistent with zero.
Accurately measuring the neutron beam polarization of a high flux, large area neutron beam is necessary for many neutron physics experiments. The Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline (FnPB) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is a pulsed neutron b
eam that was polarized with a supermirror polarizer for the NPDGamma experiment. The polarized neutron beam had a flux of $sim10^9$ neutrons per second per cm$^2$ and a cross sectional area of 10$times$12~cm$^2$. The polarization of this neutron beam and the efficiency of a RF neutron spin rotator installed downstream on this beam were measured by neutron transmission through a polarized $^{3}$He neutron spin-filter. The pulsed nature of the SNS enabled us to employ an absolute measurement technique for both quantities which does not depend on accurate knowledge of the phase space of the neutron beam or the $^{3}$He polarization in the spin filter and is therefore of interest for any experiments on slow neutron beams from pulsed neutron sources which require knowledge of the absolute value of the neutron polarization. The polarization and spin-reversal efficiency measured in this work were done for the NPDGamma experiment, which measures the parity violating $gamma$-ray angular distribution asymmetry with respect to the neutron spin direction in the capture of polarized neutrons on protons. The experimental technique, results, systematic effects, and applications to neutron capture targets are discussed.
The spin-structure functions $g_1$ and $g_2$, and the spin-dependent partial cross-section $sigma_mathrm{TT}$ have been extracted from the polarized cross-sections differences, $Delta sigma_{parallel}hspace{-0.06cm}left( u,Q^{2}right)$ and $Delta sig
ma_{perp}hspace{-0.06cm}left( u,Q^{2}right)$ measured for the $vec{^textrm{3}textrm{He}}(vec{textrm{e}},textrm{e})textrm{X}$ reaction, in the E97-110 experiment at Jefferson Lab. Polarized electrons with energies from 1.147 to 4.404 GeV were scattered at angles of 6$^{circ}$ and 9$^{circ}$ from a longitudinally or transversely polarized $^{3}$He target. The data cover the kinematic regions of the quasi-elastic, resonance production and beyond. From the extracted spin-structure functions, the first moments $overline{Gamma_1}hspace{-0.06cm}left(Q^{2}right)$, $Gamma_2hspace{-0.06cm}left(Q^{2}right)$ and $I_{mathrm{TT}}hspace{-0.06cm}left(Q^{2}right)$ are evaluated with high precision for the neutron in the $Q^2$ range from 0.035 to 0.24~GeV$^{2}$. The comparison of the data and the chiral effective field theory predictions reveals the importance of proper treatment of the $Delta$ degree of freedom for spin observables.
