In this talk, I will review the existing data on hadronization in semi-inclusive DIS off nuclear targets, beginning with the HERMES era, followed by Jefferson Lab CLAS experiment at 6 GeV and the recently realized continuation with 11 GeV beams. A unique feature of semi-inclusive DIS is its ability to investigate time-dependence of color propagation and hadronization processes by embedding it...
Calculating the x-dependence of partonic distribution functions from lattice QCD has become feasible in the last decade due to novel approaches. In this talk, I will present selected advances for extracting PDFs and GPDs at leading twist and beyond. Such progress demonstrates the potential of lattice QCD calculations to complement other theoretical and experimental efforts toward a better...
Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) are nowadays the object of an intense effort of research, in the perspective of understanding nucleon structure. They describe the correlations between the longitudinal momentum and the transverse spatial position of the partons inside the nucleon and they can give access to the contribution of the orbital momentum of the quarks and gluons to the nucleon...
Studies based on employing hard probes and pioneering processes such as semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) on atomic nuclei are cogent in accessing medium modifications of their underlying structure, exploring the hadronization mechanisms, and studying confinement dynamics in cold nuclear matter. Indeed, carrying out such studies in a clean environment effectively probes the...
