Why quark fields are separated?

Distributions and parton model

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

What do we know about quark momentum? Suppose that protonis moving along Z direction with a high momentum, then

“Big”component

is a new variable called lightcone momentumfraction

Not always small and can be observed!

What do we know about hadronic tensor?

Quarks are “probed” at exactly value of

What do we know about hadronic tensor?

The integration can be performed now! We will also use new variable

See lectures of Alberto Accardi

Distributions and parton model

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

What do we know about distributions?

It is a matrix, we need to project it in order to find distributions

What do we know about distributions?

Unpolarized quark distribution

Our matrix, that is called quark-quark correlator

What do we know about distributions?

Lightcone momentum fraction

What do we know about distributions?

Lightcone momentum fraction

Measured in the process

Gauge invariance

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

QCD is invariant under gauge transformations

It means that all observables are also gauge invariant

Gauge invariance

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

QCD is invariant under gauge transformations

It means that all observables are also gauge invariant

What we forgot?

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

We forgot that quark and remnant are colored thus they interact via gluon exchanges!

This object is called Wilson line

Gauge link

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

Wilson line restores gauge invariance!

so that

Gauge link

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

Wilson line restores gauge invariance!

so that

Gauge invariant definition of distributions

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

means that is integrated out,

but we want TMD and transverse momentum dependence!

How can we observe quark transverse momentum?

SIDIS If produced hadron has transverse momentum

it will be sensitive to quark transverse momentum

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture II

SIDIS: variables

6 variables

Analogue of Bjorken x for fragmenting quark

Orientation of the spin of the proton

SIDIS: variables

cm energy

Relation (show it!)

SIDIS: frames

There are two convenient frames to studySIDIS

• frame

transverse motion of quarks

We “observe” transverse motion of quarks in SIDIS!

Gauge invariance

Alexei Prokudin – Lecture I

We sum all these gluons

And the gauge link is now

We sum all these gluons

Fields are not only separated in direction, but also in this makes TMDs sensitive to gauge invariance

TMDs

8 functions in total (at leading twist)
