Transverse Spin Physics at HERMES

Abstract

Single-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive pion production are measured by the HERMES experiment for the first time, with a transversely polarised hydrogen target. Two different sine-dependencies are extracted which can be related to the quark distributions transversity h1(x) and the Sivers function f1Tperp(x).
