  9. Transversity Distribution Function three quark distribution functions (DF) are necessary to describe the structure of the nucleon at LO unpolarised DF DF of a quark with momentum xP in a nucleon well known – unpolarised DIS q(x) f1q (x) helicity DF difference of DF of quarks with spin parallel or anti parallele to the nucleon spinin a longitudinally polarised nucleon known – polarised DIS Dq(x) g1q(x) transversity DF difference of DF of quarks with spin parallel or anti parallele to the nucleon spinin a transversely polarised nucleon DTq(x) = q↑↑(x) - q↑↓(x) h1q(x), dq(x), dTq(x) largely unknown ALL 3 OF EQUAL IMPORTANCE F. Bradamante

  10. Transversity Distribution Function DTq(x),h1q(x),dq(x), dTq(x) , q=uv, dv, qsea • properties: • probes the relativistic nature of quark dynamics • no contribution from the gluons  simple Q2 evolution • positivity (Soffer) bound • first moments: tensor charge • sum rule for transverse spinin Parton Model framework • it is related to GPD’s • ischiral-odd: decouples from inclusive DIS Bakker, Leader, Trueman, PRD 70 (04) F. Bradamante

  11. Transversity DF: how to measure it the Transversity DF is chiral-odd: observable effects are given only by the product ofTq (x)and an other chiral-odd function can be measured in SIDIS on a transversely polarised target via “quark polarimetry” all measured in COMPASS F. Bradamante

  12. the fragmentation function of a transversely polarised quark has aspin dependent part “Collins” FF: Collins asymmetry the “quark polarimetry” relies on the Collins effect a quark moving “horizontally” and polarized “upwards” would emit the leading meson preferentially on the “left” side of the jet in SIDIS the “Collins angle” is • C = h-s’ = h+S - p h,s’,Sazimuthal angles of the hadron momentum, of the spin of the fragmenting quark and of the nucleon in the GNS F. Bradamante

  13. Collins asymmetry distribution of the hadrons: ± refer to the opposite orientation of the transverse spin of the nucleon PT (f·PT) is the target polarisation; DNNis the transverse spin transfer coefficient initial  struck quark in each angular bin one measures the quantities - reduces acceptance variation effects - at first order, spin independent effects cancel out and fitting them the “Collins Asymmetry” is extracted F. Bradamante

  14. Collins Fragmentation Function measurable in e+e– annihilation • first attempts to measured it from the correlation between the azimuthal angles of p’s from e+e– annihilation using LEP data most recent data, shown at SPIN2006 UL and UC double ratios last year: great news from BELLE the Collins FF has been measured in e+e– annihilation, and it is different from zero! measurement of the correlation between the azimuthal angles of p‘s in the near jet and in the far jet from e+e– annihilation F. Bradamante

  15. Collins asymmetry transversely polarised deuteron target charged hadrons(mostly pions) • 2004: first results from2002 dataPRL94 (2005) 202002 confirmed by • 2006: final results from2002-2004 data NPB765 (2007)31 asymmetries compatible with zero within the statistical errors (syst. errors much smaller) the same with leading h F. Bradamante

  16. preliminary 2002-2004 Collins asymmetry naïve interpretation of the data (parton model, valence region) • proton data  unfavored Collins FF ~ – favored Collins FF at variance with unpol case u quark dominance (d quark DF ~ unconstrained) • deuteron data some (small) effect expected even if  cancellation between Tu (x) and Td (x) access to Td (x) F. Bradamante

  20. Transversity DF: how to measure it the Transversity DF is chiral-odd: observable effects are given only by the product ofTq (x)and an other chiral-odd function can be measured in SIDIS on a transversely polarised target via “quark polarimetry” alternative way to access transversity not sensible to transverse momenta F. Bradamante
