abstract
We propose a novel probe of the nucleon's transversity distribution, $h_1^q$, using the one-point energy correlator (OPEC), an infrared-and-collinear safe jet substructure observable. We demonstrate that in transversely polarized $p^{\uparrow}p$ collisions, the OPEC exhibits a single-spin asymmetry (SSA) with a clean $\sin(\phi_s - \phi_n)$ angular dependence. This method probes SSA over a much wider kinematic range in the angular scale $\theta_n$ compared to traditional measurements of hadron transverse momentum~$j_\perp$, establishing a complementary and systematically distinct channel to study the nucleon's three-dimensional structure at RHIC and the future Electron-Ion Collider.

First measurement of energy correlators in jets from transversely polarized pp collisions at 200 GeV shows sizable spin asymmetries for pions that provide sensitivity to nucleon transversity with reduced fragmentation uncertainties.
A new approach using near-side energy-energy correlators in dihadron fragmentation enables extraction of nucleon transversity PDF in collinear factorization without modeling intrinsic transverse momentum or dihadron resonances.
Spin-dependent energy correlators in polarized DIS provide a new way to probe the proton's spin structure, with resummed predictions in current and target fragmentation regions.
The paper proposes that one-point energy correlators in transversely polarized proton-proton collisions access the nucleon's transversity distribution through a single-spin asymmetry with sin(φ_s - φ_n) angular dependence over a wider kinematic range than traditional transverse momentum measurements
Defines an IRC-safe one-point charge correlator in DIS, relates it to a new nucleon charge correlator in the forward limit and to TMDs in the back-to-back limit, with SCET derivations verified in QCD to O(alpha_s^2) and resummations to NLL/N3LL.
Numerical predictions for transverse-spin dependent energy-energy correlators in polarized pp collisions agree with recent STAR data and show a slight preference for transversity extractions consistent with lattice QCD.
Pseudo-data from CLAS12, SoLID, and ePIC experiments are incorporated into the JAMDiFF analysis to forecast reduced uncertainties on transversity PDFs at intermediate-to-large x from JLab and across all x from EIC, plus tensor charge comparisons to lattice QCD.
In the chiral quark-soliton model with 1/N_c corrections, the isoscalar tensor charge is 0.81, the isovector anomalous tensor magnetic moment is 1.97, and the isoscalar tensor quadrupole moment is 5.98, completing the flavor decomposition.
In 1D lattice Schwinger and NJL models, single-particle momentum distributions dominate two-particle correlations once thermal kinetic energy becomes comparable to the interaction strength, supporting applicability of kinetic theory.
