Single transverse-spin asymmetry in Drell-Yan lepton angular distribution
We calculate a single transverse-spin asymmetry for the Drell-Yan lepton-pair’s angular distribution in perturbative QCD. At leading order in the strong coupling constant, the asymmetry is expressed in terms of a twist-3 quark-gluon correlation function T (V ) F (x1, x2). In our calculation, the same result was obtained in both light-cone and covariant gauge in QCD, while keeping explicit elect...
متن کاملNuclear dependence in transverse momentum distribution for Drell-Yan pair
Recently, it was found experimentally that the transverse momentum distribution of Drell-Yan pair in hadron-nucleus collisions shows nuclear dependence not linearly proportional to A, the atomic number of the target [1]. In addition, the average of squared transverse momentum, 〈q T 〉, grows approximately as A 1/3 [1,2]. This observed non-linear nuclear dependence indicates that multiple-scatter...
متن کاملNuclear dependence in Drell-Yan transverse momentum distribution
We calculate the nuclear enhancement in Drell-Yan transverse momentum distribution in hadron-nucleus collisions. In terms of multiple scattering picture, we compute the contributions from double scattering. Applying the generalized factorization theorem, we express the nuclear enhancement in terms of twist-4 nuclear parton correlation functions. We demonstrate that these twist-4 nuclear parton ...
متن کاملQCD Factorized Drell-Yan Cross Section at Large Transverse Momentum
We derive a new factorization formula in perturbative quantum chromodynamics for the Drell-Yan massive lepton-pair cross section as a function of the transverse momentum QT of the pair. When QT is much larger than the pair’s invariant mass Q, this factorization formula systematically resums the logarithmic contributions of the type αs ln (QT /Q 2) to all orders in the strong coupling αs. When Q...
متن کاملPrediction for the transverse momentum distribution of Drell-Yan dileptons at PANDA∗
We study the potential of the coming experiment PANDA to constrain the propagator of the quark in the proton. In this letter the triple differential cross section of the Drell-Yan process at PANDA kinematics is predicted. The model incorporates primordial parton transverse momentum and finite width effects caused by the quark initial state interaction. The results suggest that experimental accu...
