The transverse nucleon single-spin asymmetry for the semi-inclusive production of photons in lepton-nucleon scattering

We study the semi-inclusive production of real, high-pT, isolated photons in unpolarized and polarized lepton-proton collisions, ℓp→ℓγX. In particular we analyze the transverse nucleon single-spin asymmetry within the collinear twist-3 formalism in perturbative QCD to leading order (LO) accuracy. We...
