1 3D Parton Distributions: path to the LHC
The goal: address unresolved issues of the physics of the transverse structure of the nucleon define what unique insights the LHC data can offer to improve the knowledge of TMDs and, where the knowledge of 3D PDFs can be necessary to achieve high-precision results demanded by the search for new physics

2 Proton structure Fundamentals of theory
Define the origin of the orbital momentum and transverse motion of partons How to parameterize the non perturbative dynamics (TMD,GPD,GTMDs,FF,..)? Factorization Universality Evolution Quark-gluon correlations Lattice studies ...... Modeling and Phenomenology Input for simulations Studies of model dependence Studies of Radiative corrections May 2016 FNAL JPARC BNL EIC LNF Nov 29

3 Spin and azimuthal asymmetries in pp and ep
Large transverse single-spin effects were observed, in p+p collisions Large cosf modulations observed by EMC in p+p h1 EMC ( ) P1

4 Single-Spin Asymmetries in electroproduction
HERMES note LNF Nov 29

5 SSAs: Black Swans of Nucleon Structure
rarity: it is an outlier, as it lies outside the realm of regular expectations, because nothing in the past can convincingly point to its possibility. it carries an extreme impact. retrospective (not prospective) predictability: in spite of its outlier status, human nature makes us concoct explanations for its occurrence after the fact, making it explainable and predictable. One single observation can invalidate a general statement derived from millennia of confirmatory sightings of millions of white swans. All you need is one single (ugly) black bird.

8 JLab12 GeV Approved Experiments by Physics Topics

9 LHC PT-distributions Studies of PT-distributions of hadrons at LHC will contribute to better knowledge of initial transverse momentum distributions of partons, and may in turn improve the description of observed PT-distributions of hadrons at LHC

10 Enthusiasm Initiative
Focus on increasing theoretical and experimental support for the nucleon 3D PDF programs worldwide Combining experiment, lattice, theory to pin down the 3D structure of nucleon Identify common interests of 3D PDF & LHC communities Enthusiasm Initiative HAVE A VERY PRODUCTIVE WEEK! LNF Nov 29

12 TMD Topical Theory Collaboration
Objectives/Deliverables – 3D Confined Motion: Unique three pronged scientific effort: (1) theory, (2) phenomenology and (3) lattice QCD, to explore 3D hadron structure – 3D confined motion! Matching x-section to parton motion – QCD factorization Parton motion vs. probing scale – QCD quantum evolution – RHIC Run17 – W program Lattice QCD calculation of TMDs – QCD 1st principle prediction? Fast software to extract TMDs – Service to community JLab12 data, … Sivers function Density distribution of an unpolarized quark in a proton moving in z direction and polarized in y-direction LNF Nov 29

13 Three stages for new phenomena
Any unexplained phenomenon passes through three stages before the reality of it is accepted. During the first stage it is considered laughable. During the second stage, it is adamantly opposed. Finally, during the third stage, it is accepted as self-evident. Arthur Schopenhauer LNF Nov 29
