## Abstract

We will discuss recent results for the spin structure functions, with an emphasis on g2 . High precision g2 data allows for tests of the Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule, and is needed to consistently evaluate higher twist effects.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
