We present precision measurements of the target and beam-target spin asymmetries from neutral pion electroproduction in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. We scattered 6-GeV, longitudinally polarized electrons off longitudinally polarized protons in a cryogenic ¹⁴NH₃ target, and extracted double and single target spin asymmetries for ep→e′ π⁰ X in multidimensional bins in four-momentum transfer (1.0 2 < 3.2 GeV²), Bjorken -x (0.12 < x < 0.48), hadron energy fraction (0.4 < z 0.7), tranverse pion meomentum (0 < PT < 1.0 GeV), and azimuthal angle ϕ_h between the lepton scattering and hadron production planes. We extracted asymmetries as a function of both x …
