We compute the tree-level and one-loop matching relations for leading power gluon transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions. At tree-level, working within the spinor formalism, we focus on twist-2 and twist-3…
We study the Hamiltonian truncation for the two-dimensional $\lambda\phi^4$ theory within the framework of Hamiltonian truncation effective theory, where truncation artifacts are mitigated through a systematic inclusion of corrective terms…
We investigate the twist-2 unpolarized generalized parton distributions (GPDs) of quarks for an on-shell gluon target in quantum chromodynamics. These GPDs parametrize the leading-twist matrix elements of the nonlocal light-like…
Quarks and gluon, as quantum particles, are subjects to various effects that go beyond the naive parton picture and are not captured by ordinary parton densities. In this work, we investigate the twist-three parton distribution functions,…
We present a first joint extraction of the Collins-Soper kernel (CSK) combining experimental and lattice QCD data in the context of an analysis of transverse-momentum-dependent distributions (TMDs). Based on a neural-network…
We present the one-loop matching coefficients necessary to match all of the leading-twist generalised transverse-momentum-dependent distributions (GTMDs) onto generalised parton distributions (GPDs). Matching functions are extracted by…
We present the first extraction of transverse-momentum-dependent distributions of unpolarised quarks from experimental Drell-Yan data using neural networks to parametrise their nonperturbative part. We show that neural networks outperform…
The semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) is the golden process for investigating the nucleon's transverse momentum-dependent (TMD) structure. We present the complete expression for SIDIS structure functions in the TMD…
We compute the Sivers, Boer-Mulders, worm-gear (T and L) transverse momentum dependent distributions in terms of twist-two and twist-three collinear distributions in the small-b limit up to next-to-leading order (NLO) in perturbation…
We present an in-depth analysis of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distributions of twist-three. In particular, we focus on evolution equations, symmetry relations, parameterization, interpretation, small-b asymptotic behaviour and the…
In the Standard Model of particle physics, the axial current is not conserved, due both to fermion masses and to the axial anomaly. Using perturbative quantum chromodynamics, we calculate matrix elements of the local and non-local axial…
Twist-3 collinear parton distribution functions (PDFs) are matrix elements of quark-gluon-quark or three-gluons light-cone operators. They depend on three momentum fraction variables, which are restricted to a hexagon region, and the…
We revisit the evolution of generalised parton distributions (GPDs) at the leading order in the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ for all of the twist-2 quark and gluon operators. We rederive the relevant one-loop evolution kernels,…
We compute all the gravitational form factors in the scalar diquark model at the one-loop level using two different regularization methods. We check explicitly that all the Poincar\'e sum rules are satisfied and we discuss in detail the…
Phenomenological studies of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distributions rely on the expansion in small values of the transverse separation of fields, where TMD parton distributions match onto collinear parton distribution…
We developed a model for the pion light-front wave function (LFWF) that incorporates valence, sea and gluon degrees of freedom. Using the LFWF overlap representation, we derived parametrizations for the pion parton distribution functions…
We present a light-front model calculation of the pion parton distribution functions (PDFs) and the pion electromagnetic form factor. The pion state is modeled in terms of light-front wave functions (LFWFs) for the $q\bar q$, $q\bar q q\bar…
We outline the physics opportunities provided by the Electron Ion Collider (EIC). These include the study of the parton structure of the nucleon and nuclei, the onset of gluon saturation, the production of jets and heavy flavor, hadron…
The quasi-transverse-momentum dependent (qTMD) distributions are equal-time correlators that can be computed within the lattice QCD approach. In the regime of large hadron's momentum, qTMD distributions are expressed in terms of standard…
We calculate the gravitational form factors of the electron at one loop in quantum electrodynamics, decomposing these into contributions from the electron and photon parts of the energy-momentum tensor. Ultraviolet divergences are removed…
