Lepton-jet Correlation in Deep Inelastic Scattering

Understand

We study the lepton-jet correlation in deep inelastic scattering.

• We perform one-loop calculations for the spin averaged and transverse spin dependent differential cross sections depending on the total transverse momentum of the final state lepton and the jet.
• The transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization formalism is applied to describe the relevant observables.
• To show the physics reach of this process, we perform a phenomenological study for HERA kinematics and comment on an ongoing analysis of experimental data.
