I will describe recent efforts to extract Transverse Momentum Distributions (TMDs) from measurements in semi-inclusive DIS, Drell-Yan processes, and Z boson production. These efforts can be considered as the first attempt at a global fit of unpolarized TMDs. The results are encouraging, but several open challenges remain to be addressed and more experimental information is needed to improve...

We give a brief overview of the field of Generalized TMDs. In particular, we address the question if/how Generalized TMDs could be measured.

In a collaboration between Jefferson Lab and the Pythia collaboration, we aim to map the non-perturbative description of hadronization in the Pythia Monte Carlo Event Generator (MCEG) to the correlation functions of TMD factorization. In a LDRD project, we investigate the connection between the description of hadronization phenomena in nuclear and high-energy physics, work towards a MCEG for...
