Abstract

We estimate transverse spin single spin asymmetry(TSSA) in the process e+pJ/ψ+Xe+p^\uparrow \to J/\psi +X using color evaporation model of charmonium production. We take into account transverse momentum dependent(TMD) evolution of Sivers function and parton distribution function and show that the there is a reduction in the asymmetry as compared to our earlier estimates wherein the Q2Q^2 - evolution was implemented only through DGLAP evolution of unpolarized gluon densities.
