Book excerpt: The spin physics program in Jefferson Lab's Hall C concentrates on high precision and high resolution studies of the nucleon spin structure that can be extracted from inclusive polarized scattering experiments. The Resonances Spin Structure - RSS experiment has measured nucleon spin structure functions in the resonances region at an intermediate four-momentum transfer Q2 ~ 1.3 GeV2. The polarized target in Hall C could be polarized longitudinally and transversely, allowing extraction of both spin-dependent structure functions g1 and g2. Results on proton and deuteron spin asymmetries A1 and A2, and spin structure functions g1 and g2, are presented here.
