Description
The study of the 3D nucleon structure by probing the
transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distributions of partons
in Semi-Inclusive DIS is widely accepted as one of the main
goals of the future Electron Ion Collider (EIC).
Much wider kinematical coverage, and in particular higher PT
and Q2, would allow validating and extending studies of
evolution properties of TMDs planned at JLab12, and access the
sea and gluon distributions. The EIC would allow much better
separation of current fragmentation and target fragmentation
regions than JLab12, and due to high polarization of electrons
and protons is a natural choice for measurements of different
spin dependent observables in a full range of accessible
kinematics. EIC provides also a unique possibility for detection
of hadrons produced in the target fragmentation region,
providing a new avenue for studies of the non-perturbative
structure of the nucleon in correlations of hadrons produced in
DIS regime.
