Transverse momentum distributions inside the nucleon from lattice QCD

Transverse momentum distributions inside the nucleon from lattice QCD

We study transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) with non-local operators in lattice QCD, using MILC/LHPC lattices. Results obtained with a simplified operator geometry show visible dipole deformations of spin-dependent quark momentum densities.
