Description
CLAS12 RG-C collected data focusing on vector-polarized deuteron target, however contribution from tensor polarized target also exist in the data. Selection of pion-SIDIS events and extraction of tensor polarized contribution from unpolarized and vector polarized parts are necessary steps toward the study of tensor-polarized transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs). As part of this process, I am preparing an analysis framework for the event selection and PID refinement, setting the groundwork for future extraction of tensor structure functions. This presentation includes physics of tensor TMD studies and the early stages of data analysis of CLAS12 RG-C data
