Proton Spin Crisis

● Quark and gluon spin contribution is smaller than ½

● Need to look at other Sources of spin → Orbital Angular Momentum

Twist 3● The examples so far were at leading order

What happens if we include a gluon on one side?

● Dynamical Twist → Suppressed by

● Genuine Twist Three → Quark gluon quark correlator

Good Component

Bad Component (implicitly includes a gluon – higher twist, dynamically dependent on good components)

Projection operators determine whether good components contribute or bad

Twist 3

Genuine Tw 3 → Explicit includes a GluonMulders, Tangerman

Jaffe, Ji Nucl Phys B 375, 1992

A correlator with an explicit gluon

● These twist 3 distribution functions from the quark quark correlator are connected to quark gluon quark correlator !(The gluon dependence is integrated over)

Or look at relations derived using equations of motion

Twist 3 Helicity Amplitudes

The quark helicity is opposite to the helicity of the quark gluon combination

Use these Relations to work out Helicity Amplitudes

Why is Twist 3 interesting ?

● We are getting access to phenomenon that involve three particle interactions

● Orbital Angular Momentum : nucleon spin, confinement → Twist 3 GPD G2

● d2 : Color force● TMD e

Orbital Angular Momentum● Polyakov Sum Rule → Twist three GPD G2 gives partonic

Diquark Model Calculation : Using Helicity Amplitudes

● The proton splits into a quark and a diquark structure. While the active quark interacts with the photon, the diquark acts as the 'spectator'

Calculating F_14

● Ji → Straight Gauge link

Using Twist 3 amplitudes in the forward case

Summary and Conclusions● GPDs, TMDs and GTMDs carry a wealth of information

about partonic structure of the nucleon

● Calculation of twist 3 amplitudes allows us access to a whole new range of phenomenon

– Partonic Orbital Angular Momentum : GPD G2

– Color Electric and Magnetic forces : d2

– Confinement● Further work in separating the Wandzura Wilczek and

genuine twist three (explicit gluon) contributions

● Understand the connection between Jaffe Manohar and Ji OAM

Transverse Momentum Distributions● Transverse Momentum Distributions are like

Parton Distribution Functions but, also include transverse momentum of quarks

● Measured using SIDIS (need to observe atleast one product (apart from the electron) after scattering to fix transverse momentum)

TMDs → Unintegrated PDFs

● Projection Operator : Access different properties of the partonic structure of nucleon with different projection operators

The Spin Structure of the Proton

● Spin is a form of angular momentum

● The proton is a fermion, it has spin ½

● The proton is not a point particle : it has internal structure

● How is the spin ½ distributed among the quarks and gluons (partons) that constitute the proton?

Probing Internal Structure : Deep Inelastic Scattering

● Access parton distribution functions :

Density of partons as a function of the fraction of proton momentum

● Take different combinations of beam and target polarizations to get different parton distributions

Momentum fraction

Measuring Quark Contribution to Proton Spin

● Expansion of correlator / cross section using distribution functions is similar to writing the unknown proton current using Form Factors

● Take opposite beam polarizations and take difference of cross section

Helicity Projection Operator

Measured by EMC experiment in 1980s to be only 30% of total !!

Spin Crisis !!!

Generalised Parton Distributions

● Accessed via Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering

● Include Momentum transfer in description

● When momentum transfer is zero we get back to parton distributions

Extending to Twist Three

● As a first check we used the twist three helicity amplitudes to calculate the twist three transverse momentum distribution 'e'

Includes transverse momentum of quarks

Next need to extend to calculating G2 to get access to Twist Three contribution to Orbital Angular Momentum!

Summary and Conclusions

● The twist three GPD G2 gives us access to Orbital Angular Momentum (Experimental Observable!)

● Present results only for twist two, what is happening at genuine twist three?

● Helicity Amplitude structure at twist three successfully used to calculate TMD 'e'

● Need to extend analysis to get Helicity Amplitude Structure of G2 (ongoing)
