Transverse momentum dependent evolution: Matching semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering processes to Drell-Yan and W/Z boson production

TL;DR: In this paper, the Collins-Soper-Sterman evolution kernel is derived for the transverse momentum dependent observables in hard processes of semi-inclusive hadron production in deep inelastic scattering and Drell-Yan lepton pair production in $pp$ collisions.

The Quark Beam Function at Two Loops

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculate the virtuality-dependent beam function at NNLO, which is relevant for any observables probing the virtualities of the incoming partons, in-cluding N-jettiness and beam thrust.

W and Z transverse momentum distributions: resummation in qT-space

TL;DR: In this article, an alternative approach to the prediction of W and Z transverse momentum distributions based on an extended version of the DDT formula is described. But the resummation of large logarithm, mandatory at small qT, is performed in qT-space, rather than in the impact parameter b.

Twist-3 formalism for single transverse spin asymmetry reexamined: Semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the complete cross section formula associated with the twist-3 quark-gluon correlation functions for the transversely polarized nucleon, including all types of pole contributions, and showed that the partonic hard part from each pole contribution satisfies certain constraints from Ward identities for color gauge invariance.

Evolution of parton densities beyond leading order: The non-singlet case

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a technique based explicitly on the factorization properties of mass singularities, which allows one to calculate the evolution of parton densities beyond leading order.

Parton Distribution and Decay Functions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define parton distribution and decay functions in QCD and prove some of their basic properties, such as renormalization, light-cone expansions and sum rules.

Small Transverse Momentum Distributions in Hard Processes

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of soft gluon brehmsstrahlung on the k⊥ distributions of μ pairs produced in hadron-hadron collisions are studied using the Block-Nordsiek method.
