Abstract

In this talk, we examine the existing calculations of QCD evolution kernels for the scale dependence of two sets of twist-3 quark-gluon correlation functions, Tq,F(x,x)T_{q,F}(x,x) and Tq,F(σ)(x,x)T^{(\sigma)}_{q,F}(x,x), which are the first transverse-momentum-moment of the naive-time-reversal-odd Sivers and Boer-Mulders function, respectively. The evolution kernels at the leading order in strong coupling constant αs\alpha_s were derived by several groups with apparent differences. We identify the sources of discrepancies and are able to reconcile the results from various groups.
