| Abstract | We present the final results of the spin asymmetries $A_1$ and the spin structure functions $g_1$ of the proton and the deuteron in the kinematic range $0.0008<x<0.7$ and $0.2<Q^2<100$ GeV$^2$. For the determination of $A_1$, in addition to the usual method which employs inclusive scattering events and includes a large radiative background at low $x$, we use a new method which minimizes t he radiative background by selecting events with at least one hadron as well as a muon in the final state. We find that this hadron method gives smaller errors for $x<0.02$, so it is combined with the usual method to provide the optimal set of results. |
