The singlet axial form factor of the nucleon provides essential input for a complete understanding of the nucleon axial structure. Together with the isovector and isoscalar octet channels, in the forward limit it forms the basis for a full…
Transversity generalized parton distributions (GPDs) appear as scalar functions in the decomposition of off-forward quark-quark and gluon-gluon correlators with a parton helicity flip. For a spin 1 hadron, we find 9 transversity GPDs for…
