Twist-3 T-odd fragmentation functions G and G in a spectator model

Abstract

We present a calculation of the twist-3 T-odd chiral-even fragmentation functions G and G using a spectator model. We consider the effect gluon exchange to calculate all necessary one-loop diagrams for the quark-quark and quark-gluon-quark correlation functions. We find that the gluon loops corrections generate non-zero contribution to these two fragmentation function. We numerically calculate their half-kT moments by integrating over the transverse momentum and also verify the equation of motion relation among G, G and the Collins function.
