The azimuthal cos{\phi} and cos2{\phi} modulations of the distribution of hadrons produced in unpolarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering of electrons and positrons off hydrogen and deuterium targets have been measured in the HERMES experiment. For the first time these modulations were determined in a four-dimensional kinematic space for positively and negatively charged pions and kaons separately, as well as for unidentified hadrons. These azimuthal dependences are sensitive to the transverse motion and polarization of the quarks within the nucleon via, e.g., the Cahn, Boer-Mulders and Collins effects.

  1. Measurements of transverse-momentum dependent effects in semi-inclusive DIS at COMPASS

    hep-ex 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    New COMPASS data from polarized deuteron targets reduce uncertainties on d-quark transversity by a factor of 2.5 at large Bjorken x and will enable first extraction of the Boer-Mulders function from unpolarized nucleon data.
