Abstract

The generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule is understood based on the polarized parton distributions of the proton with the higher twist contributions. A simple parameterized formula is proposed to clearly present the contributions of different components in proton to Γ1p(Q2). We find that the contribution of quark helicity to Γ1p(Q2) is almost constant (∼ 0.123); the twist-4 effect dominates the suppression of Γ1p(Q2) at Q2<3GeV2, while the twist-6 effect arises a dramatic change of Γ1p(Q2) at Q2<0.3 GeV2, it implies a possible extended objects with size 0.2-0.3~ fm inside the proton.
