We report on the results of the E06-014 experiment performed at Jefferson Lab in Hall A, where a precision measurement of the twist-3 matrix element d_2 of the neutron (d^n_2) was conducted. The quantity dn_2 represents the average color Lorentz force a struck quark experiences in a deep inelastic electron scattering event off a neutron due to its interaction with the hadronizing remnants. This color force was determined from a linear combination of the third moments of the ^3He spin structure…

Revealing Color Forces with Transverse Polarized Electron Scattering.

The Spin Asymmetries of the Nucleon Experiment measured two double spin asymmetries using a polarized proton target and polarized electron beam at two beam energies, 4.7 and 5.9 GeV, and the results suggest a flavor independent average color Lorentz force.

Insights on proton structure from lattice QCD: The twist-3 parton distribution function gT(x)

In this work, we present the first-ever calculation of the isovector flavor combination of the twist-3 parton distribution function $g_T(x)$ for the proton from lattice QCD. We use an ensemble of

The spin structure of the nucleon

Analytic calculations of the hadron spectrum have now being realized using light-front holography and superconformal quantum mechanics, a novel approach providing a well-founded semiclassical approximation to QCD.

Perturbative matching relates the parton quasidistributions, defined by Euclidean correlators at finite hadron momenta, to the light-cone distributions which are accessible in experiments. Previous
