T-odd Wigner Distributions in boost-invariant longitudinal position space and Spin-momentum correlation in proton
Abstract
The boost invariant longitudinal position space variable , which is the Fourier conjugate to skewness , unravels the longitudinal impact parameter information in a proton. Here, we investigate the skewness sensitivity of T-odd leading twist GTMDs within the Dokshitzer Gribov Lipatov Altarelli Parisi (DGLAP) region, considering a momentum transfer to longitudinal as well as transverse direction. The -space distributions of the T-odd sector show oscillatory patterns that are sensitive to the square of the total momentum transfer , which is analogous to the diffraction scattering of waves in Optics. An additional effect on the diffraction pattern is reported, caused by interference between transverse momentum transfer to the transverse momentum of quarks. We also present the correlation of proton spin to the transverse momentum of constituents through Sivers and Boer-Mulders Wigner Distributions in boost invariant longitudinal position space.
