Ultraviolet divergences and evolution in weighted transverse moments

ORAL

Abstract

I will discuss the problem of ultraviolet divergences in the definitions of cross sections weighted by transverse momentum. A common integral relation connecting certain types of TMD pdfs to twist-3 collinear correlation function will be shown to receive unsuppressed corrections. I will explain how this is connected to questions about the form of QCD evolution appropriate for transversely weighted observables.
