Abstract
In this work, the problem of separating the contribution of a strange quark to the proton spin in the process\(ep \to e' Mx = (M = K^ \pm ,K^0 ,\bar K^0 ,\pi ^ \pm )\) is studied. Measurements of the quantities Δσ K and Δσ±, where Δσ M =dσ M (+ +) -dσ M (+ -) at small z, and the use of definite combinations of them allow important information on the proton-spin structure to be obtained.
