abstract
A first empirical extraction of the transversity distributions for the $u$- and $d$-quarks has been done by Anselmino {\it et al.} based on the combined global analysis of the measured azimuthal asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scatterings and those in $e^+ e^- \to h_1 h_2 X$ processes. Although with large uncertainties, the determined transversity distributions already appear to reveal a remarkable qualitative difference with the corresponding longitudinally polarized distributions. We point out that this difference contains very important information on internal spin structure of the nucleon.

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.
