The quark spin densities related to generalized parton distributions in impact-parameter space and to transverse-momentum dependent parton distributions are reviewed within a light-cone quark model, with focus on the role of the different spin-spin and spin-orbit correlations of quarks. Results for azimuthal spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering due to T -even transverse-momentum dependent parton distributions are also discussed.

The present knowledge about nontrivial relations between generalized parton distributions for a spin-1/2 hadron on the one hand and transverse momentum dependent distributions on the other is reviewed. While various relations can be found in the framework of simple spectator models, so far no model-independent nontrivial relations have been established. In fact, by relating the two types of parton distributions to the fully unintegrated, off-diagonal quark-quark correlator for a spin-1/2 hadron, we argue that none of the nontrivial relations can be promoted to a model-independent status.

AbstractGeneralized transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (GTMDs), as mother funtions of transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs) and generalized parton distributions (GPDs), encode the most general parton structure of hadrons. We calculate four twist-two time reversal odd GTMDs of pion in a scalar spectator model. We study the dependence of GTMDs on the longitudinal momentum fraction x carried by the active quark and the transverse momentum $$|\vec k_T|$$ | k → T | for different values of skewness $$\xi $$ ξ defined as the longitudinal momentum transferred to the pion as well as the total momentum $$|\vec \Delta _T|$$ | Δ → T | transferred to the pion. In addition, the quasi-TMDs and quasi-GPDs of pion have also been investigated in this paper.

We present a recent model calculation of the Wigner distributions for the quarks and the orbital angular momentum carried by the quarks. These Wigner distributions contain combined position and momentum space information of the quark distributions and are related to both generalized parton distributions (GPDs) and transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs).

The exploration of the structure of the nucleon reaches a new level of sophistication when explicit dependences on transverse momenta of partons in both parton distributions and fragmentation functions are included. These dependences lead to a manifold of new correlations between the nucleon and quark spin as well as their momenta and thus a wealth of experimental observables. A particular example is the novel Sivers function that—according to firm QCD predictions—has to change sign when going from the Drell-Yan process to semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering. Here a review is given on which knowledge has been gathered about transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) distribution and fragmentation functions from semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering experiments.
