We generate a set of "relativistic" predictions for the relationship between viewing angle and apparent frequency, for each of three different non-transverse shift equations. We find that a detector aimed transversely (in the lab frame) at…
We recall the definitions and the basic properties of the transversity distributions $h^{q,\bar q}_1(x,Q^2)$ and the corresponding nucleon tensor charges $\delta q(Q^2)$. We briefly comment on different estimates from several…
