Initial State Interactions , Factorization , and the Drell - Yan Process
We show that initial state interactions violate the factorization conjecture for the Drell-Yan process order by order in perturbation theory. We also discuss the effects of elastic and inelastic initial state interactions on the observed cross sections. A Talk Presented by G. T. Bodwin at the 1981 Banff Summer School on Particles and Fields Alberta, Canada, August 16-28, 1981 * Work supported b...
متن کاملInitial - State Interactions in the Unpolarized Drell - Yan Process ∗
We show that initial-state interactions contribute to the cos 2φ distribution in unpolarized Drell-Yan lepton pair production p p and p p → `+`−X, without suppression. The asymmetry is expressed as a product of chiral-odd distributions h1 (x1, p 2 ⊥) × h ⊥ 1 (x2, k 2 ⊥), where the quark-transversity function h1 (x, p 2 ⊥) is the transverse momentum dependent, light-cone momentum distribution of...
متن کاملEffects of initial-state QCD interactions in the Drell-Yan process.
We develop a simple, intuitive picture of the effects, in the Drell-Yan process, of initial-state interactions between the projectile and the target. For purposes of illustration, we present specific analyses in terms of a nonrelativistic QED model. However, our principle conclusions are valid in QCD as well. We show that initial-state interactions lead to an increase in the average of the squa...
متن کاملPolarized Drell-Yan Process
The results of a recent calculation of the QCD corrections to the longitudinally polarized Drell-Yan process are summarized. In addition to the parity conserving double spin asymmetry which is already accessible in the Drell-Yan production of lepton pairs at fixed target energies, we consider parity violating single spin asymmetries appearing only in the production of massive vector bosons at p...
متن کاملQuark Initial State Interaction in Deep Inelastic Scattering and the Drell - Yan process ∗
We pursue a phenomenological study of higher twist effects in high energy processes by taking into account the off-shellness (virtuality) of partons bound in the nucleon. The effect of parton off-shellness in deep inelastic ep → eX scattering (DIS) and the Drell-Yan process (pp → l ¯ lX) is examined. Assuming factorization and a single-parameter Breit-Wigner form for the parton spectral functio...
