Bacchetta, Boglione, Henneman & Mulders PRL 85 (2000) 712 Matrix representationfor M = [F(x)g+]T Related to the helicity formalism Anselmino et al. • Off-diagonal elements (RL or LR) are chiral-odd functions • Chiral-odd soft parts must appear with partner in e.g. SIDIS, DY
Summarizing DIS • Structure functions (observables) are identified with distribution functions (lightcone quark-quark correlators) • DF’s are quark densities that are directly linked to lightcone wave functions squared • There are three DF’s f1q(x) = q(x), g1q(x) =Dq(x), h1q(x) =dq(x) • Longitudinal gluons (A+, not seen in LC gauge) are absorbed in DF’s • Transverse gluons appear at 1/Q and are contained in (higher twist) qqG-correlators • Perturbative QCD evolution COMPASS p j mulders

Weighted distributions Appear in azimuthal asymmetries in SIDIS or DY These are process-dependent (through gauge link) and thus need in fact [±] superscript!

Summarizing SIDIS • Beyond just extending DIS by tagging quarks … • Transverse momenta of partons become relevant, appearing in azimuthal asymmetries • DF’s and FF’s depend on two variables, F[](x,pT) and D[](z,kT) • Gauge link structure is process dependent ( []) • pT-dependent distribution functions and (in general) fragmentation functions are not constrained by time-reversal invariance • This allows T-odd functions h1^ and f1T^ (H1^ and D1T^) appearing in single spin asymmetries COMPASS p j mulders
