TMD evolution of azimuthal asymmetries
Transverse Momentum Dependence Including transverse momentum of quarks involves much more than replacing f 1 (x) → f 1 (x,k T2 ) in collinear factorization expressions One deals with less inclusive processes and with TMD factorization & TMD evolution TMD = t ransverse momentum dependent parton distribution

Studies of TMD evolution of azimuthal asymmetries TMD evolution studies initially focused on Collins and Sivers effect asymmetries [D.B., 2001, 2009, 2013; Idilbi, Ji, Ma & Yuan, 2004; Aybat & Rogers, 2011; Aybat, Collins, Qiu, Rogers, 2012; Aybat, Prokudin & Rogers, 2012; Anselmino, Boglione, Melis, 2012; Godbole, Misra, Mukherjee, Rawoot, 2013; Sun & Yuan, 2013; …] Sivers function Generic features: - decrease and broadening of TMDs with increasing energy - Gaussian develops a power- law tail Azimuthal asymmetries will decrease with Q Aybat & Rogers, 2011

TMD evolution of the Sivers asymmetry At low Q 2 (up to ~20 GeV 2 ), the Q 2 evolution is dominated by S NP [Anselmino, Boglione, Melis, PRD 86 (2012) 014028] Precise low Q 2 data can help to determine the form and size of S NP Uncertainty in S NP determines the ±0.1 in 1/Q 0.7±0.1
