Impact parameter dependent parton distributions for a relativistic composite system

Abstract: We investigate the impact parameter dependent parton distributions for a relativistic composite system in light-front framework. We take an effective two-body spin-1/2 state, namely an electron dressed with a photon in QED. We express the impact parameter dependent parton distributions in terms of overlaps of light-cone wave functions. We obtain the scale dependence of both fermion and gauge boson distributions and show the distortion of the pdfs in the transverse space for transverse polarization of the state… Show more

“…If, instead of imposing a cutoff on transverse momentum, , we imposed a cutoff on the invariant mass [15], then the divergences at x 1 would have been regulated by a nonzero photon mass [28]. The DVCS amplitude at x 1 also receives a contribution from the single-particle sector of the Fock space [4,16,17,21], which we did not take into account. A detailed discussion about the cutoff scheme is provided in Appendix B.…”

“…This model has been used to calculate the spin and orbital angular momentum of a composite relativistic system [15] as well as the GPDs in the impact parameter space [16,17]. The calculation is thus exact to O , and it gives the Schwinger anomalous magnetic moment, the corresponding electron's Dirac and Pauli form factors [15,16], as well as the correct gravitational form factors, including the vanishing of the anomalous gravitomagnetic moment B 0 in agreement with the equivalence theorem [18]. In addition, it provides a template for the wave functions of an effective quarkdiquark model of the valence Fock state of the proton lightfront wave function.…”

“…We generalize this analysis by assigning a mass M to the external electrons and a different mass m to the internal electron lines and a mass to the internal photon lines with M < m þ for stability. In effect, we shall represent a spin-1 2 system as a composite of a spin-1 2 fermion and a spin-1 vector boson [5,[17][18][19][20]. This field theory inspired model has the correct correlation between the Fock components of the state as governed by the light-front eigenvalue equation, something that is extremely difficult to achieve in phenomenological models.…”
