Sumario: | A main topic of investigation at the COMPASS experiment is the spin structure of the nucleon. This article reports on the experimental procedure to measure the polarisation of the strange quarks in polarised deep inelastic scattering, both in inclusive and semiinclusive reactions. The dependence of the results for the strange quark polarisation on the fragmentation functions is discussed. |
