abstract
We study the transverse single spin asymmetry in direct photon production in pA collisions with incoming protons being transversely polarized. To facilitate the calculation, we formulate a hybrid approach in which the nucleus is treated in the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework while the collinear twist-3 formalism is applied on the proton side. It has been found that an additional term which arises from color entanglement shows up in the spin dependent differential cross section. The fact that this additional term is perturbatively calculable allows us to quantitatively study color entanglement effects.

Maximum phase-space density of linearly polarized gluon TMDs in the saturation region
For the dipole gluon TMD, the Sudakov-limited maximum phase-space density of h_1^{⊥g} is 2 n_g^{max} ∼ 2 α_s^{-3/2} in the saturation region.
