Collinear hard processes, e.g. DIS
• Structure functions (observables) are identified with distribution functions (matrix elements of quark-quark correlators along lightcone)
• Longitudinal gluons (A+, not seen in LC gauge) are part of DF’s, rendering them gauge inv.
• There are three ‘leading’ DF’s f1
q(x) = q(x), g1q(x) = q(x), h1
q(x) = q(x) • Transverse gluons appear at 1/Q and are
contained in (higher twist) qqG-correlators• DF’s are quark densities that are directly
linked to lightcone wave functions squared• Perturbative QCD evolution (reflecting
the large pT-behavior of the correlator proportional to s/pT

Non-collinear processes, e.g. SIDIS
• Relevant in electroweak processes with two hadrons (SIDIS, DY)
• Beyond just extending DIS by tagging quarks …
• Transverse momenta of partons become relevant, appearing in azimuthal asymmetries
• DF’s and FF’s depend on two variables, (x,pT) and (z,kT)
• Gauge link structure is process dependent ( [])
• pT-dependent distribution functions and (in general) fragmentation functions are not constrained by time-reversal invariance
• This allows T-odd functions h1 and f1T
(H1 and D1T
) appearing in single spin asymmetries

• Functions h1 and f1T
(Sivers) nonzero!

pT-dependent DF’stwist structure
• For integrated correlator (x) the (M/P+)t-2 expansion corresponds with definite twist assignments a la OPE
• For unintegrated correlators [](x,pT) the (M/P+)t-2 does not correspond with definite twist assignments; they contain operators of twist t
• Transverse moments (x,pT) d2pT pT
(x,pT) project out the parts in [](x,pT) proportional to pT
. They correspond to matrix elements with operators of twist t and t+1 (quark-quark and quark-quark-gluon)
• Transverse moments are measured in azimuthal asymmetries with in addition to angular averaging also require an explicit (transverse) momentum
• The difference between [](x) and
[](x) is a gluonic pole matrix element (soft gluon pole), which for distribution functions is T-odd
• The socalled Lorentz invariance relations based on general structure of quark-quark correlators need to be augmented because of gauge link
• Factorization of explicit pT-dependent functions requires ‘soft factors’• Universality of subleading functions (appearing at M/P+ level) in
[](x) seems ok, but this seems not the case for subleading functions
in [](x) [so f1T
(1) ok but f(1) problematic: in cos h asymmetry pT f
