QCD Corrections to Jet Production in Polarized $ep$ Scattering

Abstract

Next-to-leading order QCD predictions for 1-jet and 2-jet cross sections in polarized deep inelastic scattering at HERA energies are presented. Whereas the QCD corrections to the total polarized cross section are very large, only moderate corrections are found for the dijet cross sections.
