abstract

We present the first calculation in lattice QCD of the lowest two moments of transverse spin densities of quarks in the nucleon. They encode correlations between quark spin and orbital angular momentum. Our dynamical simulations are based on two flavors of clover-improved Wilson fermions and Wilson gluons. We find significant contributions from certain quark helicity flip generalized parton distributions, leading to strongly distorted densities of transversely polarized quarks in the nucleon. In particular, based on our results and recent arguments by Burkardt [Phys. Rev. D 72 (2005) 094020], we predict that the Boer-Mulders-function $h_1^\perp$, describing correlations of transverse quark spin and intrinsic transverse momentum of quarks, is large and negative for both up and down quarks.

  1. Resummation for Lattice QCD Calculation of Generalized Parton Distributions at Nonzero Skewness

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A threshold factorization and resummation scheme for quasi-GPD matching in LaMET is derived and shown to be self-consistent on a GPD model.

  2. Chiral-odd generalized parton distributions in the large-$N_{c}$ limit of QCD: Next-to-leading-order contributions

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Derives the NLO (1/Nc) chiral-odd GPDs in the pion mean-field picture, proves polynomiality and sum rules, and gives gradient-expansion estimates partially matching lattice QCD.

  3. Nucleon tensor form factors at large $N_{c}$

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the pion mean-field picture at large Nc, the nucleon tensor charge and anomalous tensor magnetic moment are valence dominated, while the tensor quadrupole moment is sea dominated and strongly enhanced near the chir...

  4. Transverse force distributions in the proton from lattice QCD

    hep-lat 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Lattice QCD computes the transverse spatial distribution of the colour-Lorentz force on the struck quark in a proton, finding local forces up to about 3 GeV/fm, larger than the QCD string tension.

  5. Gluon skewed generalized parton distributions of proton from a light-front Hamiltonian approach

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using light-front wave functions with one dynamical gluon, the authors obtain all leading-twist gluon GPDs of the proton at nonzero skewness and find diffraction-like patterns in longitudinal position space.

  6. Multipole structure of the nucleon tensor form factors

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    In the chiral quark-soliton model with 1/N_c corrections, the isoscalar tensor charge is 0.81, the isovector anomalous tensor magnetic moment is 1.97, and the isoscalar tensor quadrupole moment is 5.98, completing the...
