We perform the first simultaneous extraction of parton collinear and transverse degrees of freedom from low-energy fixed-target Drell-Yan data in order to compare the transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the pion and proton.

Understanding the nuclear effect is critical to reduce the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) uncertainties at large x. Traditionally, the nuclear effect is assumed to be isoscalar.

The results suggest an enhanced nuclear effect on the d-quark PDF in the...

TMD observables are normally expressed in terms of their contributions coming from different regions in transverse momentum.

This talk illustrates the chiral nature of the non-Abelian covariant derivative for SU(N) gauge groups. In the chromostatic limit, the interior volume of a hadron is filled by a single color-vortex. The Strong Conjecture for Color Confinement suggests that this volume is separated from an exterior volume by a domain wall of topological charge. -
