abstract
The Drell-Yan (DY) processes with unpolarized colliding hadrons and with the single transversally polarized hadron are considered. The possibility of direct (without any model assumptions) extraction of both transversity and its accompanying T-odd parton distribution functions (PDF) is discussed. For DY processes measurements planned at GSI the preliminary estimations demonstrate that it is quite real to extract both transversity and its accompanying T-odd PDF in the PAX conditions.

Measurement of $\mathbf{q_T}$-weighted transverse-spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetries at COMPASS
COMPASS reports preliminary qT-weighted Drell-Yan transverse spin asymmetries from 2015 plus half of 2018 data, and extracts the first transverse moment of the pion Boer-Mulders TMD PDF.
