After including TMD evolution, the Sivers asymmetry in these J/ψ processes at EIC kinematics remains sizable and largely independent of LDME choices, providing a robust probe of the gluon Sivers function.
Sivers Effect for Pion and Kaon Production in Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering

abstract
We study the Sivers effect in the transverse single spin asymmetries (SSA) for pion and kaon production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) processes. We perform a fit of A^sin(phi_h-phi_S)_UT which, by including recent high statistics experimental data for pion and kaon production from HERMES and COMPASS Collaborations, allows a new determination of the Sivers distribution functions for quarks and antiquarks with u, d and s flavours. Estimates for forthcoming SIDIS experiments at COMPASS and JLab are given.

Collins asymmetries for pion-in-jet production at the EIC are calculated in LO and Weizsacker-Williams approximations, showing quark-channel dominance and clearer access to sea-quark transversity.
