Azimuthal and transverse single spin asymmetries in hadronic collisions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-02-01 v1

Abstract

We give a short overview of the phenomenology of azimuthal and transverse single spin asymmetries in (un)polarized high-energy hadronic collisions. We briefly summarize a transverse momentum dependent, generalized parton model approach to these polarization phenomena, and discuss some of its applications. Finally, open points and future developments will be outlined.
