Poincare' covariant light-front spectral function and transverse momentum distribution

Nuclear Theory 2019-03-20 v1

Abstract

In valence approximation the fermion correlator is simply related to the light-front spectral function. Then the leading twist time-reversal even transverse momentum distributions can be explicitly obtained from the light-front wave function of the system and the twist-three distributions are linear combinations of the transverse distributions at leading twist.
