Transverse momentum dependent factorization for lattice observables

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Using soft collinear effective field theory, we derive the factorization theorem for the quasi-transverse-momentum-dependent (quasi-TMD) operator. We check the factorization theorem at one-loop level and compute the corresponding coefficient function and anomalous dimensions. The factorized expression is built from the physical TMD distribution, and a nonperturbative lattice related factor. We demonstrate that lattice related functions cancel in appropriately constructed ratios. These ratios could be used to explore various properties of TMD distributions, for instance, the nonperturbative evolution kernel. A discussion of such ratios and the related continuum properties of TMDs is presented.
