The structure functions g1p and g1n have been measured over the range 0.014 < x < 0.9 and 1 < Q2 < 40 GeV2 using deep-inelastic scattering of 48 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from polarized protons and deuterons. We find that the Q2 dependence of g1p (g1n) at fixed x is very similar to that of the spin-averaged structure function F1p (F1n). From a NLO QCD fit to all available data we find $\Gamma_1^p - \Gamma_1^n =0.176 \pm 0.003 \pm 0.007$ at Q2=5 GeV2, in agreement with the Bjorken sum rule prediction of 0.182 \pm 0.005.

Insight on confinement from the QCD effective charge
hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5

Assigning the imaginary poles of α_g1 to parton propagators produces long-distance damping e^{-Λ_s|x|/√2}|x|^{-5/2+d_a}, interpreting confinement as Green's-function suppression.
NNLO Determination of Polarized Parton Distribution Functions with Higher-Twist and Target-Mass Corrections
hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 4.0

KLS26 is an NNLO polarized PDF set from inclusive DIS that includes TMC, additive and multiplicative higher-twist terms, and positivity, with the largest NNLO shifts in the strange-quark helicity distribution.
Toward Precision Helicity PDFs from Global DIS and SIDIS Fits with Projected EIC Measurements
hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 4.0

Projected EIC pion and kaon SIDIS measurements would substantially reduce the uncertainties on the proton's sea-quark and gluon helicity distributions, most strongly at small momentum fractions.
Global analyses of helicity-dependent parton distribution functions
hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 2.0

Modern global QCD analyses agree that up-quark helicity is positive and down-quark helicity negative, with positive gluon polarisation at moderate x, while the full gluon spin moment remains limited by the unmeasured ...
