Polarized proton-deuteron (pd) Drell-Yan processes are investigated for studying new spin structure of a spin-1 hadron. Our formalism indicates that there exist many structure functions: 108 in general and 22 in the \vec Q_T-integrated…
We analyze the polarized Drell-Yan processes with spin-1/2 and spin-1 hadrons in a parton model. Quark and antiquark correlation functions are expressed in terms of possible combinations of Lorentz vectors and pseudovectors with the…
We show in general that there are 108 structure functions in the proton-deuteron Drell-Yan processes. However, there exist only 22 finite ones after integrating the cross section over the virtual-photon transverse momentum \vec Q_T or after…
Physics of spin-1 hadron is an unexplored topic in the high-energy region although spin-1/2 physics has been well investigated in the last decade. It is important to test our knowledge of hadron spin structure in a quite different field of…
There are four new structure functions for the spin-1 deuteron in comparison with the ones for the spin-1/2 proton, and they are called $b_1$, $b_2$, $b_3$, and $b_4$. The twist-2 structure functions $b_1$ and $b_2$ are expressed by…
We study the polarized Drell-Yan processes from the collision of two spin-1/2 hadrons at order 1/Q based on the framework of transverse momentum dependent factorization.We give the complete twist-three results of total sixteen independent…
The tensor-polarized structures of the deuteron can be probed through the proton-deuteron Drell-Yan process, where the proton is unpolarized and the deuteron is tensor polarized. This measurement will be conducted at Fermilab in the near…
We explain spin structure for a spin-one hadron, in which there are new structure functions, in addition to the ones ($F_1$, $F_2$, $g_1$, $g_2$) which exist for the spin-1/2 nucleon, associated with its tensor structure. The new structure…
There are polarized structure functions $b_{1-4}$ for the spin-1 deuteron. We calculated the leading-twist tensor structure function $b_1$ by using convolution description for the deuteron. We found large differences between our theoretical…
The longitudinally polarized Drell-Yan process is one of most powerful tools to probe the structure of hadrons. By means of the recent formalism of the polarized proton-deuteron(pd) Drell-Yan, we calculate the ratio of the proton-deuteron…
Nucleon spin structure functions have been investigated mainly by longitudinally-polarized ones for finding the origin of the nucleon spin. Other types of spin structure functions are transversely-polarized ones. In particular, quark…
Tensor-polarized structure functions of a spin-1 hadron are additional observables which do not exist for the spin-1/2 nucleon. They could probe novel aspects of the internal hadron structure. Twist-2 tensor-polarized structure functions…
The gluon transversity distribution in the deuteron is defined by the matrix element between linearly-polarized deuteron states, and it could be investigated in proton-deuteron collisions in addition to lepton-deuteron scattering. The…
We report recent theoretical progress on a polarization asymmetry in the proton-deuteron Drell-Yan process with a polarized-deuteron target and the tensor-polarized structure function $b_1$. Experimental measurements are possible at JLab…
Tensor structure of the deuteron can be studied by deep inelastic scattering and Drell-Yan process to understand it in terms of quark and gluon degrees of freedom. It probes interesting features in the deuteron including a D-wave…
We discuss possible studies of parton distributions at the proposed 50-GeV PS facility. First, comments are given in general on the importance of large-x physics for finding new physics. Second, polarized deuteron reactions are discussed in…
Spin-1 hadrons contain different aspects of spin physics from the ones of the spin-1/2 nucleon because of the existence of tensor-polarized structure functions. In the charged-lepton deep inelastic scattering from a spin-1 hadron or…
We discuss transversity distributions and transverse spin asymmetries. First, $Q^2$ evolution results are shown for transversity and longitudinally polarized distributions. Second, the antiquark flavor asymmetry $\Delta_{_T} \bar…
Two twist-3 processes are discussed. We first present a simple estimate of the longitudinal-transverse spin asymmetry in the polarized Drell-Yan process. We next derive a cross section for the semi-inclusive production of a polarized…
We study double spin asymmetries in Drell-Yan processes in which one initial hadron is transversely polarized and another one is longitudinally polarized. The complete part of the hadronic tensor relevant to asymmetries is derived. This…
