Single-spin Azimuthal Asymmetries in the ``Reduced Twist-3 Approximation''
E. De Sanctis, W. -D. Nowak, K. A. Oganessyan
Abstract
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.
