Unraveling hadron structure with generalized parton distributions

AV Belitsky, AV Radyushkin - Physics reports, 2005 - Elsevier
The generalized parton distributions, introduced nearly a decade ago, have emerged as a
universal tool to describe hadrons in terms of quark and gluonic degrees of freedom. They …

The g1 problem: Deep inelastic electron scattering and the spin of the proton

RL Jaffe, A Manohar - Nuclear Physics B, 1990 - Elsevier
A recent measurement of the spin-dependent structure function of the proton, g 1 p (x, Q 2),
suggest that the quark's spin accounts for little of the proton's spin. We analyze several …

Chiral-odd parton distributions and Drell-Yan processes

RL Jaffe, X Ji - Nuclear Physics B, 1992 - Elsevier
We study the twist-two and twist-three chiral-odd parton distributions, h 1 (x), h L (x) and e
