Abstract
By assuming that there is no significant intrinsic polarization of the gluon, we have computed the polarized quark contributions to the proton’s spin under SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking for the polarized sea and have performed a global leading-order QCD fit to obtain the spin-dependent quark distributions, which could be used as input for analyzing lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron collisions.
