Spin-independent and double-spin cos(phi) asymmetries in semi-inclusive pion electroproduction

We consider the cos(phi) dependence of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry for charged pion electroproduction in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering, emphasizing intrinsic transverse momentum effects. This azimuthal asymmetry allows to measure the cos(phi) moments of the unpolarized and double-spin cross-section, simultaneously. The size of the asymmetry, in the approximation where all twist-3 interaction-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions are set to zero, is estimated for HERMES kinematics; both the spin-independent and the double-spin cos(phi) moments are predicted to be sizeable and negative.

Azimuthal Asymmetries: Access to Novel Structure Functions

One of the most interesting consequence of non-zero intrinsic transverse momentum of partons in the nucleon is the nontrivial azimuthal dependence of the cross section of hard scattering processes. Many of the observable asymmetries contain unknown functions which provide essential information on the quark and gluon structure. Several of them have been studied in the last few years; we discuss their qualitative and quantitative features in semi-inclusive DIS.

Double-spin cos(phi) Asymmetry in Semi-inclusive Electroproduction

We consider the double-spin cos(phi) asymmetry for pion electroproduction in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of longitudinally polarized leptons off longitudinally polarized protons. We estimate the size of the asymmetry in the approximation where all twist-3 interaction-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions are set to zero. In that approximation at HERMES kinematics a sizable negative cos(phi) double-spin asymmetry for pi+ electroproduction is predicted.

Azimuthal Asymmetries in Inclusive Single Pion Electroproduction

The leading and sub-leading order results for pion electroproduction in polarized and unpolarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, are considered putting emphasis on transverse momentum dependent effects appearing in azimuthal asymmetries. In particular the spin-dependent (single, double) and spin-independent asymmetries of the distributions in the azimuthal angle of the pion related to the lepton scattering plane are discussed.

Transversity Distribution and Polarized Fragmentation Function from Semi-inclusive Pion Electroproduction

A method is discussed to determine the hitherto unknown u-quark transversity distribution from a planned HERMES measurement of a single-spin asymmetry in semi-inclusive pion electroproduction off a transversely polarized target. Assuming u-quark dominance, the measurement yields the shapes of the transversity distribution and of the ratio of a polarized and the unpolarized u-quark fragmentation functions. The unknown relative normalization can be obtained by identifying the transversity distribution with the well-known helicity distribution at large x. The systematic uncertainty of the method is dominated by the assumption of u-quark dominance.

Investigation of single spin asymmetries in pi^{+} electroproduction

The azimuthal single target-spin asymmetries for pi^{+} production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of leptons off longitudinally polarized protons are evaluated using two main approaches available in the literature. It is shown that the approximation where the twist-2 transverse quark spin distribution in the longitudinally polarized nucleon is small enough to be neglected leads to a consistent description of all existing asymmetries observed by the HERMES experiment.

Perturbative contribution to the sin(phi) asymmetry in inclusive pi^{+} electroproduction

We consider the sin(phi) single target-spin asymmetry in deep-inelastic pi^{+} inclusive electroproduction off a longitudinally polarized target. We show that at larger transverse momentum of the outgoing hadron the evaluated asymmetry decreases if one takes into account the first order alpha_S perturbative contribution to the cross section, integrated over the azimuthal angle. This leads to good agreement with recent HERMES data.

Single-spin Azimuthal Asymmetries in the ``Reduced Twist-3 Approximation''

We consider the single-spin azimuthal asymmetries recently measured at the HERMES experiment for charged pions produced in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of leptons off longitudinally polarized protons. Guided by the experimental results and assuming a vanishing twist-2 transverse quark spin distribution in the longitudinally polarized nucleon, denoted as ``reduced twist-3 approximation'', a self-consistent description of the observed single-spin asymmetries is obtained. In addition, predictions are given for the z dependence of the single target-spin asymmetry.

Sin(phi) azimuthal asymmetry in semi-inclusive electroproduction on longitudinally polarized nucleon

We investigate the $sin ϕ$ azimuthal asymmetry in the semi-inclusive deep-inelastic lepton scattering off longitudinally polarized nucleon target arising from the time reversal odd structures. The order 1/Q contributions of the leading twist and twist-three distribution and fragmentation functions to that asymmetry for the certain kinematical conditions are numerically estimated.

Time-reversal-odd asymmetry in pion leptoproduction at HERMES

We estimate the size of the azimuthal asymmetry of the semi-inclusive pion production in the deep-inelastic scattering of a polarized lepton beam off an unpolarized nucleon target for the produced hadron, arising due to both nonperturbative and perturbative effects.

Investigations of Azimuthal Asymmetry in Semi-Inclusive Leptoproduction

We consider the azimuthal asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic leptoproduction arising due to both perturbative and nonperturbative effects at HERMES energies and show that the $k_T^2/Q^2$ order corrections to $< \cosϕ>$ and $< \cos2ϕ>$ are significant. We also reconsider the results of perturbative effects for $< \cosϕ>$ at large momentum transfers \cite{A1} using the more recent sets of scale-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions, which bring up to $18{%}$ difference in $< \cosϕ>$. In the same approach we calculate the $< \cos2ϕ>$ as well.

An Ising spin - S model on generalized recursive lattice

The Ising spin - S model on recursive p - polygonal structures in the external magnetic field is considered and the general form of the free energy and magnetization for arbitrary spin is derived. The exact relation between the free energies on infinite entire tree and on its infinite "interior" is obtained.

Chaos in the Z(2) Gauge Model on a Generalized Bethe Lattice of Plaquettes

We investigate the Z(2) gauge model on a generalized Bethe lattice with three plaquette representation of the action. We obtain the cascade of phase transitions according to Feigenbaum scheme leading to chaotic states for some values of parameters of the model. The duality between this gauge model and three site Ising spin model on Husimi tree is shown. The Lyapunov exponent as a new order parameter for the characterization of the model in the chaotic region is considered. The line of the second order phase transition, which corresponds to the points of the first period doubling bifurcation, is also obtained.

Chaotic Repellers in Antiferromagnetic Ising Model

For the first time we present the consideration of the antiferromagnetic Ising model in case of fully developed chaos and obtain the exact connection between this model and chaotic repellers. We describe the chaotic properties of this statistical mechanical system via the invariants characterizing a fractal set and show that in chaotic region it displays phase transition at {\it positive} "temperature" $ β_c = 0.89 $. We obtain the density of the invariant measure on the chaotic repeller.
