Summarizing DIS Structure functions (observables) are identified with
distribution functions (lightcone quark-quark correlators)
DF’s are quark densities that are directly linked to lightcone wave functions squared
There are three DF’s f1
q(x) = q(x), g1q(x) =q(x), h1
q(x) =q(x) Longitudinal gluons (A+, not seen in LC gauge) are
absorbed in DF’s Transverse gluons appear at 1/Q and are contained in
(higher twist) qqG-correlators

Summarizing SIDIS Transverse momenta of partons become
relevant, effects appearing in azimuthal asymmetries
DF’s and FF’s depend on two variables, (x,pT) and (z,kT) Fragmentation functions are not
constrained by time-reversal invariance This allows T-odd functions H1
and D1T,
appearing in single spin asymmetries

T-odd phenomena T-invariance does not constrain fragmentation
T-odd FF’s (e.g. Collins function H1)
T-invariance does constrain (x) No T-odd DF’s and thus no SSA in DIS
What about T-invariance and (x,pT)?

T-odd phenomena T-invariance does not constrain (x,pT) Effects are connected to gauge link
They require ‘leading’ pT-effects
They change of sign from SIDIS to DY
They spoil density interpretation of functions and relation to lc wf
Phenomenology of T-odd functions exist
Similar T-odd effects exist at subleading (twist-3) level Experiment can give answers via specific experiments

Conclusions Hard reactions with two hadrons (DY, SIDIS)
offer possibilities to access parton transverse momenta pT
Experimental access via azimuthal asymmetries, often also requiring polarization
T-odd phenomena occur in single-spin asymmetries
These are natural for fragmentation functions and seem possible for pT-dependent distribution functions involving necessary AT pieces in gauge link
