Phenomenology of transverse spin: past, present and future

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-07-20 v2

Abstract

We summarize the most significant aspects in the study of transverse spin phenomena over the last few decades, focusing on Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering processes and hadronic production in e+ee^+e^- annihilations. The phenomenology of transverse momentum dependent distribution and fragmentation functions will be reviewed in an in-depth analysis of the most recent developments and of the future perspectives.
