Light-cone divergence in twist-3 correlation functions
It is argued that the definition of the twist-3 transverse momentum dependent correlation functions must be modified if they contain light-like Wilson lines. In the framework of a simple spectator model of the nucleon we show explicitly the presence of a light-cone divergence for a specific twist-3 time-reversal odd parton density. This divergence emerges for all eight twist-3 T-odd correlators...
متن کاملModel-Independent Results for SU(3) Violation in Twist-3 Light-Cone Distribution Functions
Abstract Using chiral symmetry we investigate the leading SU(3) violation in the complete set of quark twist-3 light-cone distribution functions of the pion, kaon, and eta, including the two-parton distributions φpM , φ σ M , and the three-parton distribution φ 3 M . It is shown that terms non-analytic in the quark masses do not affect the shape, and only appear in the normalization constants. ...
متن کاملRenormalization of Chiral-Even Twist-3 Light-cone Wave Functions for Vector Mesons in QCD
We present the one-loop anomalous dimension matrices for the chiral-even twist-3 (nonsinglet) conformal operators, which govern the scale-dependence of the vector meson light-cone wave functions through the conformal expansion. It is clarified that the constraints from the charge-conjugation invariance and the chirality conservation allow only one independent anomalous dimension matrix for each...
متن کاملGravitons and light cone fluctuations. II. Correlation functions.
A model of a fluctuating lightcone due to a bath of gravitons is further investigated. The flight times of photons between a source and a detector may be either longer or shorter than the light propagation time in the background classical spacetime, and will form a Gaussian distribution centered around the classical flight time. However, a pair of photons emitted in rapid succession will tend t...
متن کاملTwist - 3 polarized structure functions ∗
We review the nucleon’s twist-3 polarized structure functions from the viewpoint of gauge invariant, nonlocal light-cone operators in QCD. We discuss a systematic treatment of the polarized structure functions and the corresponding parton distribution functions. We emphasize unique features of higher twist distributions, and the role of the QCD equations of motion to derive their anomalous dime...
