Current-Target Correlations as a Probe of Delta_G/G in Polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering

Abstract

The measurement of the polarized gluon distribution function Delta_G/G using current-target correlations in the Breit frame of deep inelastic scattering is proposed. The approach is illustrated using a Monte Carlo simulation of polarized $ep$-collisions for HERA energies.
