Sivers asymmetry in inelastic $J/psi$ leptoproduction at the EIC


Abstract in English

We study the Sivers asymmetry in inelastic $J/psi$ leptoproduction, $ep^uparrow to e+ J/psi+X$, within a transverse momentum dependent scheme, the so-called generalized parton model (GPM). The effects of final-state interactions are properly taken into account by employing the color-gauge invariant GPM (CGI-GPM). For the $J/psi$ formation the non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) framework is adopted. Predictions for unpolarized cross sections and maximized Sivers asymmetries at EIC energies are given.
