abstract

We present a comprehensive study of the angular structure functions for Drell-Yan leptons in $Z/\gamma$-boson production within the framework of the transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization theorem, including kinematic power corrections (KPCs). We find good agreement with the data in the applicability region of the TMD factorization theorem. The inclusion of KPCs allows us to describe all angular coefficients in a frame-independent manner using only the leading-twist TMD distributions: the unpolarized and the Boer-Mulders functions. The value of the Boer-Mulders function is determined using the ATLAS measurement of the $A_2$ angular coefficient. The analysis is performed at N$^4$LL perturbative order. Additionally, we discuss the technical implementation and impact of KPCs on the phenomenology of TMD distributions.

  1. Soft background fields at next-to-leading power in transverse momentum dependent SIDIS with jets

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    New next-to-leading-power factorization for SIDIS with jets from a background-field method with explicit soft modes, including operator-level definitions of twist-3 TMDs free of rapidity and endpoint divergences.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    First flavor-dependent extraction of unpolarized quark TMDs in the pion, finding a wider transverse momentum tail for valence d quarks than for sea quarks, with large uncertainties.
