Measurements of the neutral current cross sections for deep inelastic scattering in e−p collisions at HERA with a longitudinally polarised electron beam are presented. The single-differential cross-sections dσ/dQ2, dσ/dx and dσ/dy and the double-differential cross sections in Q2 and x are measured in the kinematic region y<0.9 and Q2>185 GeV2 for both positively and negatively polarised electron beams and for each polarisation state separately. The measurements are based on an integrated luminosity of 169.9 pb−1 taken with the ZEUS detector in 2005 and 2006 at a centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV. The structure functions \(x\tilde{F_{3}}\) and xF3γZ are determined by combining the e−p results presented in this paper with previously measured e+p neutral current data. The asymmetry parameter A− is used to demonstrate the parity violating effects of electroweak interactions at large spacelike photon virtuality. The measurements agree well with the predictions of the Standard Model.
