HERMES is a second generation experiment to study the spin structure of the nucleon, in which measurements of the spin dependent properties of semi-inclusive deep-inelastic lepton scattering are emphasized. The first experimental results from measurements of single-spin asymmetries for pions and kao

We present the final results of the spin asymmetries A1 and the spin structure functions g1 of the proton and the deuteron from the SMC. In the region I < 0.02 we use a new method for the determination of Al. The usual method employs inclusive scattering events and includes a large radiative backgro
The experimental status of the spin-dependent structure functions as obtained from deep inelastic scattering experiments at CERN, SLAC and DESY is discussed. The data available for g~, gdl and 9~ are evolved to common Q2=5 GeV 2 and compared. The gl structure functions are now precise enough to per
Generalized parton distributions are a type of hadronic observables which has recently stimulated great interest among theorists and experimentalists alike. Introduced to delineate the spin structure of the nucleon, the orbital angular momentum of quarks in particular, the new distributions contain
