Single Transverse Spin Asymmetry for Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering

Abstract

Establishing the twist-3 formalsim for the single transverse spin asymmetry, we present a complete single-spin-dependent cross section for SIDIS, ep eπ X, associated with the twist-3 distribution for the transversely polarized nucleon. We emphasize that the consistency condition from the Ward identities for color gauge invariance is crucial to prove factorization property of the cross section.
