Abstract We report on measurements of the transverse spin structure functions for the proton and neutron (deuteron) using deep inelastic electron scattering on transversely polarized solid targets. Data cover the range 1 GeV/sup 2/ < Q/sup 2/ < 20 GeV/sup 2/ and 0.02 < x < 0.9. Errors on these data are a factor of three smaller than previous results, allowing meaningful comparison of proposed models and sum rules.
