Single-spin asymmetries for semi-inclusive electroproduction of charged pions in deep-inelastic scattering positrons are measured the first time with transverse target polarization. The asymmetry depends on azimuthal angles both pion ($\ensuremath{\phi}$) and spin axis (${\ensuremath{\phi}}_{S}$) about virtual-photon direction relative to lepton plane. extracted Fourier component $\mathbf{⟨}\mathrm{sin}(\ensuremath{\phi}+{\ensuremath{\phi}}_{S}){\mathbf{⟩}}_{UT}^{\ensuremath{\pi}}$ is a...
Azimuthal single-spin asymmetries of lepto-produced pions and charged kaons were measured on a transversely polarized hydrogen target. Evidence for naive-T-odd, transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution function is deduced from non-vanishing Sivers effects pi+, pi0, K+, K-, as well in the difference pi+ pi- cross sections.
This report is based on a ten-week program Gluons and the quark sea at high-energies, which took place Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT) in Seattle Fall 2010. The principal aim of was to develop sharpen science case an Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), facility that will be able collide electrons positrons with polarized protons light heavy nuclei high energies, offering unprecedented possibilities in-depth studies quantum chromodynamics (QCD). organized around following four major themes: (i)...
We provide a concise overview on transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions, their application to topical issues in high-energy physics phenomenology, and theoretical connections with QCD resummation, evolution factorization theorems. illustrate the use of TMDs via examples multi-scale problems hadronic collisions. These include q_T spectra Higgs vector bosons for low q_T, azimuthal correlations production multiple jets associated heavy at large jet masses. discuss...
Abstract High energy collisions at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a large number of particles along beam collision axis, outside acceptance existing LHC experiments. The proposed Forward Physics Facility (FPF), to be located several hundred meters from ATLAS interaction point and shielded by concrete rock, will host suite experiments probe standard model (SM) processes search for physics beyond (BSM). In this report, we review status civil engineering plans explore...
We present an extraction of unpolarized transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution and fragmentation functions based on more than two thousands data points from several experiments for different processes: semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering Drell-Yan production lepton pairs. The baseline analysis is performed with a Monte Carlo replica method resumming large logarithms at N3LL accuracy. resulting description the very good ($\chi^2/N_{\rm dat} = 1.06$). For scattering,...
During the workshop ``Transversity: New Developments in Nucleon Spin Structure'' (${\mathrm{E}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{T}}^{*}$, Trento, Italy, 14--18 June 2004), a series of recommendations was put forward by participants concerning definitions and notations for describing effects intrinsic transverse-momentum partons semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering.
All the leading-twist parton distribution functions are calculated in a spectator model of nucleon, using scalar and axial-vector diquarks. Single gluon rescattering is used to generate $T$-odd functions. Different choices for diquark polarization states considered, as well few options form factor at nucleon-quark-diquark vertex. The results listed analytic interpreted terms light-cone wave parameters fixed by reproducing phenomenological parametrization unpolarized helicity distributions...

A bstract We present an extraction of unpolarized partonic transverse momentum distributions (TMDs) from a simultaneous fit available data measured in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan and Z boson production. To connect at different scales, we use TMD evolution next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. The analysis is restricted to the low-transverse-momentum region, with no matching fixed-order calculations high momentum. introduce specific choices deal low order 1 GeV 2 ....

The relies knowledge dihadron fragmentation functions, which are taken from electron-positron annihilation data. For time, is extracted similar to what usually done for spin-averaged helicity distributions. important for, among other things, detecting...
A common library, TMDlib2, for Transverse-Momentum-Dependent distributions (TMDs) and unintegrated parton (uPDFs) is described, which allows easy access of commonly used TMDs uPDFs, providing a three-dimensional (3D) picture the partonic structure hadrons.
