Quark Transverse Spin-Momentum Correlation of the Pion from Lattice QCD: The Boer-Mulders Function

We present the first lattice QCD calculation of the quark transverse spin-momentum correlation, i.e., the T-odd Boer-Mulders function, of the pion, using large-momentum effective theory (LaMET). The calculation is done at three lattice spacings $a=(0.098, 0.085, 0.064)$ fm and pion masses $\sim350$ MeV, with pion momenta up to $1.8$ GeV. The matrix elements are renormalized in a state-of-the-art scheme and extrapolated to the continuum and infinite momentum limit. We have implemented the perturbative matching up to the next-to-next-to-leading order and carried out a renormalization-group resummation. Our results provide valuable input for phenomenological analyses of the Boer-Mulders single-spin asymmetry.

Nucleon Transversity Distribution in the Continuum and Physical Mass Limit from Lattice QCD

We report a state-of-the-art lattice QCD calculation of the isovector quark transversity distribution of the proton in the continuum and physical mass limit using large-momentum effective theory. The calculation is done at four lattice spacings $a=\{0.098,0.085,0.064,0.049\}$~fm and various pion masses ranging between $220$ and $350$ MeV, with proton momenta up to $2.8$ GeV. The result is non-perturbatively renormalized in the hybrid scheme with self renormalization which treats the infrared physics at large correlation distance properly, and extrapolated to the continuum, physical mass and infinite momentum limit. We also compare with recent global analyses for the nucleon isovector quark transversity distribution.
