Results for the naive-time-reversal-odd quark distributions in a light-cone quark model are presented. The final-state interaction effects are generated via single-gluon exchange mechanism. The formalism of light-cone wave functions is used to derive general expressions in terms of overlap of wave-function amplitudes describing the different orbital angular momentum components of the nucleon. In particular, the model predictions show a dominant contribution from S-and P-wave interference in the Sivers function and a significant contribution also from the interference of P and D waves in the Boer-Mulders function. The favorable comparison with existing phenomenological parametrizations motivates further applications to describe azimuthal asymmetries in hadronic reactions.

Dijet Acoplanarity in CUJET3 as a Probe of the Nonperturbative Color Structure of QCD Perfect Fluids

M. Gyulassy, P. M. Jacobs, J. Liao, S. Shi, X. N. Wang, F. Yuan

Summary: By utilizing the CUJET3=DGLV+VISHNU jet-medium interaction framework, it is demonstrated that dijet azimuthal acoplanarity in high energy A + A collisions is sensitive to non-perturbative enhancements of the jet transport coefficient in the QCD crossover temperature range. Comparisons between different models of temperature and energy dependence of the jet medium transport coefficient show potential signatures of critical opalescence phenomena in the QCD confinement temperature range.

S. Bastami, L. Gamberg, B. Parsamyan, B. Pasquini, A. Prokudin, P. Schweitzer

Summary: The study calculates structure functions for the pion-induced Drell-Yan process, using inputs from the light-front constituent quark model and the spectator model. The implementation of TMD evolution for all asymmetries at Next-to-Leading Logarithmic precision is a first in this field. Results are in line with experimental data, aiding in data interpretation and future model assessment.

Summary: Positron beams, both polarized and unpolarized, are essential for experimental programs at the next generation of lepton accelerators, such as JLab's hadronic physics program. They provide precise understanding of electromagnetic structure of nucleons and nuclei, allow for model-independent determination of electromagnetic form factors, and enable accurate separation of contributions to lepto-production cross sections. Additionally, positron beams offer alternative tests of the Standard Model of particle physics.

The gravitational form factor D(t) of the electron

Andreas Metz, Barbara Pasquini, Simone Rodini

Summary: The electron-graviton interaction is described using the gravitational form factors of the QED energy-momentum tensor, focusing on the form factor D(t) and its interpretation in terms of internal forces in QED at one-loop accuracy. The contributions from electron and photon parts of the energy-momentum tensor are calculated separately, and the case of a nonzero photon mass is studied. Similarities and differences with the form factor D(t) of hadronic bound states are also discussed.

Summary: The visible world is built on the stable proton, the only composite building block of matter. Understanding matter formation relies on explaining the dynamics and properties of the proton's bound state. This involves the response of the proton to an electromagnetic field, characterized by electromagnetic polarizabilities and generalized polarizabilities. However, there has been a long-standing puzzle regarding the electric generalized polarizability of the proton, suggesting the presence of an unresolved dynamical mechanism.

Summary: This report describes the physics case, detector requirements, and evolving detector concepts for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) experimental program. The EIC will be a new facility in the United States with the capability to collide high-energy electron beams with high-energy proton and ion beams, providing access to regions dominated by gluons. The use of polarized beams in the EIC will allow for unprecedented access to the spatial and spin structure of particles. The report aims to advance the physics program and develop detector concepts that meet the requirements for the EIC.

Perturbative calculations of gravitational form factors at large momentum transfer

Xuan-Bo Tong, Jian-Ping Ma, Feng Yuan

Summary: In this study, perturbative QCD analysis of the gravitational form factors of nucleon at large momentum transfer was conducted, leading to an explicit factorization formula in terms of twist-3 and twist-4 light-cone distribution amplitudes of nucleon. Numerical results of quark and gluon contributions to various GFFs, along with perturbative calculations of the scalar form factor <P'vertical bar F-2 vertical bar P> for pion and proton at large momentum transfer, were presented using model assumptions for the distribution amplitudes in the literature.

Nucleon Energy Correlators for the Color Glass Condensate

Hao-Yu Liu, Xiaohui Liu, Ji-Chen Pan, Feng Yuan, Hua Xing Zhu

Summary: We demonstrate that the recently proposed nucleon energy-energy correlator (NEEC) fEEC(x; theta) can reveal gluon saturation in the small-x regime in eA collisions. The novelty of this probe lies in its full inclusivity, similar to deep-inelastic scattering (DIS), but without the need for jets or hadrons, while still providing a clear window into the small-x dynamics through the shape of the theta distribution. We find that the saturation prediction differs significantly from the expectation of collinear factorization.

The gravitational form factors of the electron in quantum electrodynamics

Adam Freese, Andreas Metz, Barbara Pasquini, Simone Rodini

Summary: We calculate the gravitational form factors of the electron in quantum electrodynamics, decomposing them into contributions from the electron and photon parts of the energy-momentum tensor. The divergences are removed through renormalization in the MS scheme, and the infrared divergences are isolated and results are given using dimensional regularization and photon-mass regularization. The form factors provide information about the electron's energy and angular momentum structure in QED, as well as its mass radius. We compare our results with the existing literature whenever possible.

Summary: We explore the application of machine learning-based classifiers in the identification of jets and events at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Our study focuses on identifying the flavor of jets and the underlying hard process of events at low EIC energies. We propose various applications of machine learning-based jet identification in key research areas and compare the performance with that at the Large Hadron Collider. The methods can be applied on Monte Carlo event generators or experimental data.

Transverse momentum dependent shape function for J/? production in SIDIS

Daniel Boer, Jelle Bor, Luca Maxia, Cristian Pisano, Feng Yuan

Summary: This article compares the order-αs and order-αs^2 transverse momentum dependent (TMD) expressions with the collinear ones for heavy quarkonium production in nonrelativistic QCD. It finds that the collinear expressions have discontinuities in the small transverse momentum limit, and demonstrates how to properly deal with them and include their finite contributions to the TMD shape functions.

Near threshold heavy quarkonium photoproduction at large momentum transfer

Peng Sun, Xuan-Bo Tong, Feng Yuan

Summary: Perturbative QCD method is used to study the photoproduction of near threshold heavy quarkonium with large momentum transfer. The study considers the contributions from the leading three-quark Fock states of the nucleon, where the three-quark Fock state with one unit quark orbital angular momentum is found to dominate at the threshold. The study also shows that there is no direct connection between the near threshold heavy quarkonium photoproduction and the gluonic gravitational form factors without additional approximation. Predictions for psi' and Upsilon (1S,2S) states are made based on the comparison between the results and recent GlueX data, which can be tested in future experiments.
