Measuring transversity with T-odd single particle production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

The transversity distribution can be measured at leading-twist in single-particle inclusive DIS, where it appears in connection with chiral-odd fragmentation functions. Among these functions, we focus on the time-reversal odd ones. They occur in fragmentation to unpolarized hadrons or polarized spin-one hadrons. Using a simple model, we show how these functions can be non-vanishing and we discuss the asymmetries where they can be measured together with the transversity distribution.
