Sivers Effect in Dihadron Electroproduction

The Sivers effect in polarized SIDIS can be measured in two hadron production as sine modulations involving the azimuthal angles $φ_T$ and $φ_R$ of both the total and the relative transverse momenta of the hadron pair, complementary to the conventional single hadron studies. In this talk we briefly present the results obtained in our recent work [1] and [2]. We also present the leading order parton model expression for the two hadron SIDIS cross section for different choices of the relative transverse momentum that dismiss the seeming contradiction of our results with previous work. Finally, we show the numerical predictions for the corresponding single spin asymmetries in the kinematics of COMPASS experiment obtained using the modified version of the $\tt{LEPTO}$ Monte Carlo event generator that includes the Sivers effect.
