Dear Collaborators,<br><br>I will submit the following abstract for the APS DNP fall meeting. Sorry for the short notice. <br><br>Cheers,<br>Whitney Armstrong<br><br><br>The Spin Asymmetries of the Nucleon Experiment (SANE) measured the virtual Compton scattering asymmetries, $A_1$ and $A_2$, which determine the spin structure functions of the proton, $g_1$ and $g_2$. The kinematics for these measurements are in a range of Bjorken $x$, $0.3 < x < 0.8$, where extraction of the twist three matrix element $d_2^p $ (an integral of $g_1$ and $g_2$ weighted by $x^2$) is most sensitive. The quantity, $d_2$, is a measure of the average restoring Lorentz color force experienced by a quark inside a polarized nucleon after it is struck by a virtual photon in electron Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS). The data was taken at the Thomas Jefferson Lab National Accelerator Facility's Hall C, using beam energies of $4.7$ and $5.9~GeV$, probing the nucleon at scales from $Q^2$ equal to $2.5~GeV^2$ up to $6.5~GeV^2$. In this polarized electron scattering off a polarized proton target experiment, two inclusive double spin asymmetries, $A_\parallel$ and $A_\perp$ were measured using the BETA (Big Electron Telescope Array) Detector. BETA is a device without magnetic momentum dispersion that consists of a scintillator hodoscope, gas Cherenkov, lucite hodoscope and a large array of lead glass detectors. We will discuss the analysis of the BETA data in addition to the motivating physics of the proton's spin structure.<br>
