RESUMO
In environmental matrices, pure beta emitters are often present with other beta-gamma emitters. This work describes a beta spectrometer that allows measurement of pure beta-emitter activities of about 10(-2) Bq. The detection system consists of a plastic scintillator surrounded in a 4 pi geometry by large anticoincidence NaI(Tl) scintillators. Solid, liquid, and gaseous samples can be analyzed, and no chemical separation is necessary. The system is particularly useful for 90Sr measurement.

We extract the Bjorken integral Gamma1(p-n) in the range 0.17 < Q2 < 1.10 GeV2 from inclusive scattering of polarized electrons by polarized protons, deuterons, and 3He, for the region in which the integral is dominated by nucleon resonances. These data bridge the domains of the hadronic and partonic descriptions of the nucleon. In combination with earlier measurements at higher Q2, we extract the nonsinglet twist-4 matrix element f2.

The cross section for the reaction ep-->e(')ppi(+)pi(-) was measured in the resonance region for 1.4
RESUMO
The double spin asymmetry in the (-->)e(-->)p --> e(prime)pi(+)n reaction has been measured for the first time in the resonance region for four-momentum transfer Q2 = 0.35-1.5 GeV(2). Data were taken at Jefferson Lab with the CLAS detector using a 2.6 GeV polarized electron beam incident on a polarized solid NH3 target. Comparison with predictions of phenomenological models shows strong sensitivity to resonance contributions. Helicity-1/2 transitions are found to be dominant in the second and third resonance regions. The measured asymmetry is consistent with a faster rise with Q(2) of the helicity asymmetry A1 for the F(15)(1680) resonance than expected from the analysis of the unpolarized data.
