“…While N and p p probe valence distributions, pp and pD Drell-Yan reactions are sensitive to the sea distributions and therefore the corresponding cos2 asymmetries are expected to be smaller. This is indeed what the E866/NuSea experiment found: the cos2 dependence observed in pD dimuon production is of the order of a few percent [24,25].…”

“…1 one needs an extra source of information. The purpose of the present paper is indeed to extract some information on the antiquark Boer-Mulders distributions from the Drell-Yan pp and pD data on the cos2 asymmetry [24,25]. Since in Drell-Yan processes the Cahn contribution to the cos2 asymmetry is known to be negligible [38], an analysis in terms of the Boer-Mulders effect alone is possible.…”

We present a short overview of studies of the transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions of the nucleon. The aim of such studies is to provide three-dimensional imaging of the nucleon and a comprehensive description of semi-inclusive high-energy reactions. By summarizing what we have done in constructing the theoretical framework for inclusive deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering and one-dimensional imaging of the nucleon, we try to sketch out an outline of what we need to do to construct such a comprehensive theoretical framework for semi-inclusive processes in terms of three-dimensional gauge-invariant parton distributions. Next, we present an overview of what we have already achieved, with an emphasis on the theoretical framework for semi-inclusive reactions in leading-order perturbative quantum chromodynamics but with leading and higher twist contributions. We summarize in particular the results for the differential cross section and azimuthal spin asymmetries in terms of the gauge-invariant transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions. We also briefly summarize the available experimental results on semi-inclusive reactions and the parameterizations of transverse-momentum-dependent parton distributions extracted from them and present an outlook for future studies.
