Polarized structure functions of the deuteron

Abstract

Physics of spin-1 hadron is an unexplored topic in the high-energy region although spin-1/2 physics has been well investigated in the last decade. It is important to test our knowledge of hadron spin structure in a quite different field of spin physics. We discuss tensor structure functions, which do not exist for the spin-1/2 nucleon, in lepton scattering and in hadron reactions such as the polarized proton-deuteron Drell-Yan process.
