We consider the leading order result for polarized leptoproduction, putting emphasis on transverse momentum dependent effects appearing in azimuthal asymmetries. Measurements of weighted cross sections enable extraction of the distribution…
We study $pp$ scattering at high energies and moderately large momentum transfer, using a model in which the proton is viewed as being composed of a quark and a diquark. We show that this model leads to single and double spin transverse…

A remarkably long-lived spin plasmon may exist in two-dimensional electron liquids with imbalanced spin up and spin down population. Predictions for this interesting mode by Agarwal et al. [Phys. Rev. B 90, 155409 (2014)] are based on the…
The proton spin dependent structure function $g_1^p$ is analysed using the unified scheme incorporating both Altarelli-Parisi evolution and the double $ln^2(1/x)$ effects at low $x$. The latter are found to be very important in the region…

We present a detailed analysis of resonance contributions in the context of higher twist effects in the moments of the proton spin structure function g_1. For each of these moments, it is found that there exists a characteristic Q^2 region…
