Quark and gluon TMD correlators in momentum and coordinate space

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-12-21 v1

Abstract

Transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distribution correlators can be parametrized in terms of TMD parton distribution functions (PDFs), or TMDs for short. We provide an overview of the leading-twist quark and gluon TMDs, both in momentum space and in coordinate space (also called bTb_T-space, where bTb_T is Fourier conjugate to the partonic momentum kTk_T). We consider unpolarized, vector polarized, as well as tensor polarized hadrons, which is relevant for spin-00, spin-1/21/2, and spin-11 hadrons.
