We investigate the spin structure of the $1^{--}$ and $1^{++}$ charmonium states near the critical temperature using QCD sum rules. To this end, we compute the contribution of the dimension-4 twist-2 gluon operator to the two-point function…
The decomposition of the nucleon spin into that of quarks and gluons is related to twist-two GPDs according to Ji sum rule. Further decomposition into the helicity and the orbital angular momentum inevitably requires twist-three GPDs. In…
We study the Wigner distributions of quarks and gluons in light-front dressed quark model using the overlap of light front wave functions (LFWFs). We take the target to be a dressed quark, this is a composite spin $-1/2$ state of quark…
It is shown that, based only upon two empirically known facts besides two reasonable theoretical postulates, we are inevitably led to a model-independent conclusion that the quark orbital angular momentum carries nearly half of the total…

Transition generalized parton distributions have emerged as a novel tool for studying the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) structure of resonances. They provide an integrated picture of the transition form factors and the transition parton…
If the ``glue'' which binds quarks within hadrons takes the form of strings, then a virial theorem may be derived which shows how the total hadron four momentum splits up into a quark contribution plus a glue contribution. The hadrons made…
The parton structure of the nucleon and pion is investigated in an exploratory model that allows one to assess whether the dressing of quarks can, by itself, produce realistic gluon contributions to light-cone momentum fractions,…
We perform a quenched lattice calculation of the first moment of twist-two generalized parton distribution functions of the proton, and assess the total quark (spin and orbital angular momentum) contribution to the spin of the proton.
We calculate the contribution arising from nonperturbative quark-gluon chromomagnetic interaction to the high energy total quark-quark cross section and to gluon distributions in nucleon. The estimation obtained within the instanton model…
The spin of a glueball is usually taken as coming from the spin (and possibly the orbital angular momentum) of its constituent gluons. In light of the difficulties in accounting for the spin of the proton from its constituent quarks, the…
The holographic light-front QCD framework provides a unified nonperturbative description of the hadron mass spectrum, form factors and quark distributions. In this article we extend holographic QCD in order to describe the gluonic…
We calculate quark Wigner distributions using the light-front wave functions in a dressed quark model. In this model, a proton target is replaced by a simplified spin-1/2 state, namely a quark dressed with a gluon. We calculate the Wigner…
The proton spin puzzle issue focused the attention on the parton spin and orbital angular momentum contributions to the proton spin. However, a complete characterization of the proton spin structure requires also the knowledge of the parton…
The determination of quark angular momentum requires the knowledge of the generalized parton distribution E in the forward limit. We assume a connection between this function and the Sivers transverse-momentum distribution, based on model…
Gravitational form factors (GFFs) of hadrons encode essential information about the internal distributions of mass, spin, pressure, and shear among their quark and gluon constituents. We compute the quark and gluon GFFs of the proton using…
Transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distribution correlators can be parametrized in terms of TMD parton distribution functions (PDFs), or TMDs for short. We provide an overview of the leading-twist quark and gluon TMDs, both in momentum…
Fourier transforms of GPDs describe the distribution of partons in the transverse plane. The 2nd moment of GPDs has been identified by X.Ji with the angular momentum (orbital plus spin) carried by the quarks - a fundamental result that is…
Using the MIT bag model, we study the contribution from the gluon vector potential due to the spectators to the orbital angular momentum of a quark in the bag model. For $\alpha_s = {\cal O}(1)$, this spectator contribution to the quark…
