Radiative Corrections for SMC Measurements

Abstract

A numerical study of QED radiative corrections for the SMC experiment at SPS is been performed. The semi-analytical program POLRAD is been used to get the size of the radiative corrections for the proton to get the size of the radiative corrections for the measurements of the proton spin dependent structure functions $g_1^p(x)$ and $g_2^p(x)$. A brief description of the program POLRAD is given.
