While twist-2 GPDs allow for a determination of the distribution of partons on the transverse plane, twist-3 GPDs contain quark-gluon correlations that provide information about the average transverse color Lorentz force acting on quarks.…
We report the first calculation of the simplest but most fundamental transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distribution of quarks in the nucleon, i.e. the time-reversal-even unpolarized TMD quark and antiquark distribution with isoscalar…
We formulate a light-front spectator model for the proton incorporating the gluonic degree of freedom. In this model, at high energy scattering of the proton, the active parton is a gluon and the rest is viewed as a spin-$\frac{1}{2}$…

Although the meson decay amplitude described by a two-point function may be regarded as one of the simplest possible physical observable, it is interesting that this apparently simple amplitude bears abundant fundamental informations on QCD…
Lorentz invariance relations connecting twist-3 parton distributions with transverse momentum dependent twist-2 distributions have been proposed previously. These relations can be extracted from a covariant decomposition of the quark-quark…
