We present a precise measurement of the proton longitudinal double-spin asymmetry $A_1^{rm p}$ and the proton spin-dependent structure function $g_1^{rm p}$ at photon virtualities $0.006~({rm GeV}/c)^2<Q^2 < 1~({rm GeV}/c)^2$ in the Bjorken $x$ range of $4 times 10^{-5} < x < 4 times 10^{-2}$. The results are based on data collected by the COMPASS Collaboration at CERN using muon beam energies of $160~{rm GeV}$ and $200~{rm GeV}$. The statistical precision is more than tenfold better than that of the previous measurement in this region. In the whole range of $x$, the measured values of $A_1^{rm p}$ and $g_1^{rm p}$ are found to be positive. It is for the first time that spin effects are found at such low values of $x$.

New results for the double spin asymmetry $A_1^{rm p}$ and the proton longitudinal spin structure function $g_1^{rm p}$ are presented. They were obtained by the COMPASS collaboration using polarised 200 GeV muons scattered off a longitudinally polari sed NH$_3$ target. The data were collected in 2011 and complement those recorded in 2007 at 160,GeV, in particular at lower values of $x$. They improve the statistical precision of $g_1^{rm p}(x)$ by about a factor of two in the region $xlesssim 0.02$. A next-to-leading order QCD fit to the $g_1$ world data is performed. It leads to a new determination of the quark spin contribution to the nucleon spin, $Delta Sigma$ ranging from 0.26 to 0.36, and to a re-evaluation of the first moment of $g_1^{rm p}$. The uncertainty of $Delta Sigma$ is mostly due to the large uncertainty in the present determinations of the gluon helicity distribution. A new evaluation of the Bjorken sum rule based on the COMPASS results for the non-singlet structure function $g_1^{rm NS}(x,Q^2)$ yields as ratio of the axial and vector coupling constants $|g_{rm A}/g_{rm V}| = 1.22 pm 0.05~({rm stat.}) pm 0.10~({rm syst.})$, which validates the sum rule to an accuracy of about 9%.

The spin structure functions g_1 for the proton and the deuteron have been measured over a wide kinematic range in x and Q2 using 1.6 and 5.7 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons incident upon polarized NH_3 and ND_3 targets at Jefferson Lab. Scatt ered electrons were detected in the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer, for 0.05 < Q^2 < 5 GeV^2 and W < 3 GeV. The first moments of g_1 for the proton and deuteron are presented -- both have a negative slope at low Q^2, as predicted by the extended Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule. The first result for the generalized forward spin polarizability of the proton gamma_0^p is also reported. This quantity shows strong Q^2 dependence at low Q^2, while Q^6gamma_0^p seems to flatten out at the highest Q^2 accessed by our experiment. Although the first moments of g_1 are consistent with Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) calculations up to approximately Q^2 = 0.06 GeV^2, a significant discrepancy is observed between the gamma_0^p data and ChPT for gamma_0^p, even at the lowest Q2.
Final results are presented from the inclusive measurement of deep-inelastic polarised-muon scattering on longitudinally polarised deuterons using a $^6$LiD target. The data were taken at $160~{rm GeV}$ beam energy and the results are shown for the k inematic range $1~({rm GeV}/c)^2 < Q^2 < 100~({rm GeV}/c)^2$ in photon virtuality, $0.004<x<0.7$ in the Bjorken scaling variable and $W > 4~{rm GeV}/c^2$ in the mass of the hadronic final state. The deuteron double-spin asymmetry $A_1^{rm d}$ and the deuteron longitudinal-spin structure function $g_1^{rm d}$ are presented in bins of $x$ and $Q^2$. Towards lowest accessible values of $x$, $g_1^{rm d}$ decreases and becomes consistent with zero within uncertainties. The presented final $g_1^{rm d}$ values together with the recently published final $g_1^{rm p}$ values of COMPASS are used to again evaluate the Bjorken sum rule and perform the QCD fit to the $g_1$ world data at next-to-leading order of the strong coupling constant. In both cases, changes in central values of the resulting numbers are well within statistical uncertainties. The flavour-singlet axial charge $a_0$, {which is identified in the $overline{rm MS}$ renormalisation scheme with the total contribution of quark helicities to the nucleon spin}, is extracted from only the COMPASS deuteron data with negligible extrapolation uncertainty: $a_0 (Q^2 = 3~({rm GeV}/c)^2) = 0.32 pm 0.02_{rm stat} pm0.04_{rm syst} pm 0.05_{rm evol}$. Together with the recent results on the proton spin structure function $g_1^{rm p}$, the results on $g_1^{rm d}$ constitute the COMPASS legacy on the measurements of $g_1$ through inclusive spin-dependent deep inelastic scattering.
We measured the $g_1$ spin structure function of the deuteron at low $Q^{2}$, where QCD can be approximated with chiral perturbation theory ($chi$PT). The data cover the resonance region, up to an invariant mass of $Wapprox1.9$~GeV. The generalized G erasimov-Drell-Hearn sum, the moment $bar{Gamma}_{1}^{d}$ and the integral $bar{I}_gamma^d$ related to the spin polarizability $gamma_{0}^{d}$ are precisely determined down to a minimum $Q^2$ of 0.02~GeV$^2$ for the first time, about 2.5 times lower than that of previous data. We compare them to several $chi$PT calculations and models. These results are the first in a program of benchmark measurements of polarization observables in the $chi$PT domain.

We present preliminary results for the first measurements of the double longitudinal spin asymmetry A_LL in inclusive jet production at mid-rapidity in polarized proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV. The data amount to ~ 0.5 pb-1 collected a t RHIC in 2003 and 2004 with beam polarizations up to 45%. The jet transverse energies are in the range of 5 < pT < 17 GeV/c. The data are consistent with theoretical evaluations using deep-inelastic scattering parametrizations for gluon polarization in the nucleon, and tend to disfavor large positive values of gluon polarization.
