Parton distribution and correlation functions describe the relation between a hadron and the quarks and gluons (or collectively, the partons) within it, and carry rich information on hadron's partonic structure that cannot be calculated by…
Color transparency is a prediction of perturbative QCD. Yet detailed calculations have been lacking, and aspects of the required factorization have been controversial. We report on the first complete calculations entirely within a…
