“…The polarized Drell-Yan data from COMPASS, together with the previous measurement of the Sivers effect in the W-and Z-boson production from p ↑ p collision at relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC) [30], provide the first evidence of the sign change of the Sivers function. The COMPASS experiment has the unique advantage to explore the sign change of the Sivers function since it has almost the same setup [8,25] for SIDIS and Drell-Yan process, which may reduce the uncertainties in the extraction of the Sivers function from the two kinds of measurements.…”

“…However, the TMD framework of QCD predicts that the T-odd PDFs present generalized universality, i.e., the sign of the Sivers function measured in Drell-Yan process should be opposite to its sign measured in SIDIS [16][17][18]. The verification of this sign change [19][20][21][22][23][24] is one of the most fundamental tests of our understanding of the QCD dynamics and the factorization scheme, and it is also the main pursue of the existing and future Drell-Yan facilities [25][26][27][28][29][30].…”

We investigate the Sivers asymmetry in the pion-induced single polarized Drell-Yan process in the theoretical framework of the transverse momentum dependent factorization up to next-to-leading logarithmic order of QCD. Within the TMD evolution formalism of parton distribution functions, the recently extracted nonperturbative Sudakov form factor for the pion distribution functions as well as the one for the Sivers function of the proton are applied to numerically estimate the Sivers asymmetry in the π − p Drell-Yan at the kinematics of the COMPASS at CERN. In the low b region, the Sivers function in b-space can be expressed as the convolution of the perturbatively calculable hard coefficients and the corresponding collinear correlation function, of which the Qiu-Sterman function is the most relevant one. The effect of the energy-scale dependence of the Qiu-Sterman function to the asymmetry is also studied. We find that our prediction on the Sivers asymmetries as functions of x p , x π , x F and q ⊥ is consistent with the recent COMPASS measurement.

During the past decade, the experiments of the RHIC spin program have provided critical insight into the spin structure of the nucleon, in particular shedding light on the roles played by gluon and sea-quark helicity. In the forthcoming RHIC run, attention will be devoted to transverse-spin phenomena. Over the last decade, theoretical and experimental engagement of this oft-challenging subject has unlocked tantalizing opportunities for new insight into nucleon structure, e.g. with higher dimensions in partonic momentum space. The STAR experiment continues this exploration through an array of measurements from high-energy polarized-proton collisions. Among these studies are the production of weak bosons, azimuthal distributions of hadrons within jets, dihadron correlations, and particle production at large pseudorapidity. Recent breakthroughs may illuminate further longstanding questions: Do factorization and universality extend to the transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) picture in proton-proton collisions? How do TMD functions evolve with changing kinematics? Beyond existing probes, future measurements will enable even wider frontiers in understanding QCD and nucleon structure.
