Abstract:
We define a number of quark fragmentation functions for spin-0, -1/2 and -1 hadrons, and classify them according to their twist, spin and chirality. As an example of their applications, we use them to analyze semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering on a transversely polarized nucleon.

  • deep inelastic scattering: lepton nucleon
  • lepton nucleon: inclusive reaction
  • nucleon: polarization
  • polarization: nucleon
  • polarization: transverse
  • transverse: polarization
  • pseudoscalar meson: leptoproduction
  • leptoproduction: pseudoscalar meson
  • vector meson: leptoproduction
