Abstract

A realistic phenomenological model combining parton/QCD ideas with lower energy SU(6) constraints is proposed for the shape and evolution of the leading spin-dependent structure function Gep(x, Q2) in polarized electroproduction. Close's broken-SU(6) ansatz is used to relate appropriately defined polarized quark-parton distribution densities to unpolarized ones at the matching momentum scale Q2 = Q02. The differences between spin and helicity distribution densities as well as the complications due to perturbative QCD and parton kτ (with related target-mass) effects are taken into account. Evolution to higher ( > 10 GeV2) values of Q2 (where target-mass effects can be neglected) yields experimentally testable numerical predictions that are presented through various plots. The value of Q0 is self-consistently determined to be about 0.5 GeV.
