Sivers Function in the MIT Bag Model
Abstract
The Sivers function, an asymmetric transverse-momentum distribution of the quarks in a transversely polarized nucleon, is calculated in the MIT bag model. The bag quark wave functions contain both S-wave and P-wave components, and their interference leads to nonvanishing Sivers function in the presence of the final state interactions. We approximate these interactions through one-gluon exchange. An estimate of another transverse momentum dependent distribution h1 is also performed in the same model.
