Abstract
We discuss the magnetic moments of the baryons allowing for flavor symmetry breaking in the quark magnetic moments. We show that there is a correlation between isospin symmetry breaking and data for the nucleon spin structure obtained from deep inelastic scattering. For small values of the isospin symmetry breaking, of the order of 5%, the magnetic moments and weak axial-vector form factors alone indicate a value of the spin polarization ΔΣ≤0.20. Larger values of the spin polarization are compatible only with large isospin symmetry breaking. We also calculate weak axial-vector form factors, which are independent of the symmetry breakings, from magnetic moment data and find good agreement with experiment.
