Previous Lattice QCD calculations of nucleon transverse momentum-dependent parton distributions (TMDs) focused on the case of transversely polarized nucleons, and thus did not encompass two leading-twist TMDs associated with longitudinal…

By using the valon model, we calculate the Transverse Momentum Distribution functions, TMDs, inside the Nucleon. TMDs indicate the probability to find partons with spin aligned (anti- aligned) to the transversely polarized nucleon. The…
