Single spin asymmetries in QCD
arXiv:hep-ph/0201150 · doi:10.1007/s10582-002-0094-0
Abstract
Measurements of single transverse spin asymmetries in high energy inclusive processes have always shown unexpected and challenging results. Several cases are considered and discussed within a QCD approach which couples perturbative dynamics to new non perturbative partonic information; the aim is that of developing a consistent phenomenological description of these unusual single spin phenomena, based on a generalized QCD factorization scheme.
