Quark transverse spin–orbit correlations

We extend the study of quark spin–orbit correlations in the nucleon to the case of transverse polarization. At the leading-twist level, this completes the spin structure of the quark kinetic energy–momentum tensor. In particular, we revisit the transversity decomposition of angular momentum proposed...
