The transverse spin asymmetry for isolated-photon SIDIS at EIC energies is estimated to reach 10% or more in specific kinematics, offering a path to constrain the quark-gluon-quark correlators F_FT(x,x') and G_FT(x,x') point by point.

abstract
We study the next-to-leading order perturbative QCD corrections to the transverse momentum-weighted Sivers asymmetry in semi-inclusive hadron production in lepton-proton deep inelastic scattering. The corresponding differential cross section is evaluated as a convolution of a twist-three quark-gluon correlation function, often referred to as Qiu-Sterman function, the usual unpolarized fragmentation function, and a hard coefficient function. By studying the collinear divergence structure, we identify the evolution kernel for the Qiu-Sterman function. The hard coefficient function, which is finite and free of any divergence, is evaluated at one-loop order.

Transverse single-spin asymmetries in $\gamma$SIDIS as a direct probe of quark-gluon-quark longitudinal momentum structure
The transverse spin asymmetry for isolated-photon SIDIS at EIC energies is estimated to reach 10% or more in specific kinematics, offering a path to constrain the quark-gluon-quark correlators F_FT(x,x') and G_FT(x,x') point by point.
