Toilets, Light Bulbs and Reproductive Rights: Rand Paul Is Pro-Choice For Toilets
The senator gives a stunning rant against energy efficiency — and reproductive choice
Ladies and gentlemen, this is what we are up against. In a diatribe as bizarre and petulant as anything out of Charlie Sheen's or any recent star of "The Bachelor's" mouth, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul went on a tear Thursday about how abortion is somehow interfering with his God-given right to incandescent light bulbs. Clearly, there wasn't one illuminating over his head when he started down the crazy path.
On Friday, Irin Carmon at Jezebel beautifully drilled down the essence of the rant — that "Rand Paul Thinks His Toilet Is More Important Than Your Abortion Rights." In a mind-boggling display of foot stamping during an energy hearing, Paul asked deputy assistant energy secretary for efficiency Kathleen Hogan if she was "pro-choice," leading the visibly puzzled Hogan to reply she's pro-choice on light bulbs. Rand then launched into full cri de coeur mode, comparing the choice of abortion to being "anti-choice on every other consumer item, including light bulbs, refrigerators, toilets. You can't go around your house without being told what to buy. You restrict my purchases. You don't care about my choices." Boo hoo hoooooo!
Who knew that reproductive choice was a consumer purchase? Who knew you could run out to Best Buy and pick up one of them late-term abortion thingies with an Energy Star rating? Paul then went on to overshare that "My toilets don't work in my house. And I blame you and people like you." We get it — Rand Paul has a fiber diet and a low flush toilet. "I can't find a toilet that works!" he blurted angrily again later. So if you're a pregnant teenage rape victim, maybe you should start thinking about how Rand Paul is suffering to get a little perspective.
Much of Paul's speech doesn't even make sense: If he's so ticked about some perceived limitation of his "choice," why does his Web page insist "I believe in a Human Life Amendment and a Life at Conception Act as federal solutions to the abortion issue." You don't like government regulation? The government regulates abortion. Where's your free market now, Paul?
The whole piece is a truly remarkable piece of irony-rich rantitude, sure to be included in the next volume of Now That's What I Call False Equivalencies and White Male Solipism! Paul said he finds it "troubling, this busybody nature that you want to come into my house — my bedroom, my bathroom …" But a woman's womb, hey, that's up for grabs.
Yet when he kvetched to Hogan that "I find it insulting … appalling and hypocritical," it was clear the parallels to how he feels and the sentiments of many of us on the side of reproductive freedom are stunningly similar. Just because Rand Paul has problems with his plumbing, it's astonishing that he believes he has the right to meddle in ours. But when he declared, "You busybodies are always trying to tell us how we can live our lives better — keep it to yourselves," I had to admit, Rand Paul, you dismissive, whiny jerk, that I could not agree more.

Meanwhile…Washington's Budget Folly
The Senate on Wednesday voted down the House budget bill, with its string of $61 billion in mostly political cuts through Sept. 30. That formally puts an end to the House's grandstand play. But the Senate also rejected its Democratic leaders' own plan to cut $6.5 billion. The government's financing is due to run out in eight days. To prevent a shutdown, the two chambers will probably have to agree to yet another short-term financing bill.
That would be politically and fiscally irresponsible. But the House Republicans will be happy to agree, as long as Democrats agree to a vigorish of $2 billion a week in cuts to vital government programs.
Unless the White House and Democratic lawmakers start pushing back a lot harder — and do a better job of explaining the disastrous effects on the economy and everyday life — the Republicans will win the argument. If it keeps going on this way, they will get the $61 billion they demanded.
The White House again threatened on Wednesday to veto the House bill, and said it supported the Democratic bill that did not even draw a simple majority. It has been hosting what appear to be unproductive talks among legislative leaders; Vice President Joseph Biden Jr., who is nominally in charge of the talks, is now visiting Eastern Europe and tried to mediate by telephone.
President Obama has yet to take a firm public stand and make clear his bargaining limits and priorities. Understandably, he does not want the government to shut down and is hoping that quiet negotiations will produce better results than loud declarations of principle. But there is no sign that the House freshmen have an interest in compromise, or that Representative John Boehner, the House speaker, has any control of his caucus.
A brief shutdown, painful as it would be, would be far less damaging than a sudden withdrawal of tens of billions in government spending from the economy, which would lead to widespread layoffs.
Mr. Obama could well follow the example of Senator Charles Schumer of New York, the third-ranking Democrat in the Senate, who on Wednesday called for a "re-set" of the negotiating process. The only way to have a meaningful discussion of the budget, he said in a speech, is to consider all of its parts at once over the long term, not for a few weeks or months at a time. That includes all the issues the Republicans wouldn't deal with in their bill: cuts to the entitlement programs and to the Pentagon budget and ways to raise revenues at the same time.
The Republicans, as Mr. Schumer noted, aren't really interested in lowering the deficit. If they were, they would never have insisted on $800 billion in tax cuts for the wealthy without paying for them, or on repealing the health care law, which saves $230 billion over a decade.
They are only interested in slashing government, no matter the cost to the country. It is time for the president — and responsible Congressional leaders of both parties — to reject their tactics and their goal.

State Crises Mean New Language Of Deceit
For most of history, we had undebatable definitions of words such as "bailout" and "bankruptcy." We understood the former as an undeserved public grant, and the latter as an inability to pay existing bills. Whatever your particular beliefs about these concepts, their meanings were at least agreed upon.
Sadly, that's not the case during a deficit crisis that is seeing language redefined on ideological terms.
"Bailout" was the first word thrown into the Orwellian fire. As some lawmakers recently proposed replenishing depleted state coffers with federal dollars, the American Conservative Union urged Congress to oppose states "seek(ing) a bailout" from the feds. Now, Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., says, "Should taxpayers in Indiana who have paid their bills on time, who have done their job fiscally be bailing out Californians who haven't? No."
Ryan, mind you, voted for 2008's TARP program — a bank bailout in the purest sense of the term. But one lawmaker's rank hypocrisy is less significant than how the word "bailout" is being used — and abused. Suddenly, the term suggests that federal aid would force taxpayers in allegedly "fiscally responsible" Republican states to underwrite taxpayers in supposedly irresponsible Democratic ones.
Aside from stoking a detestable interstate enmity, this thesis ignores the fact that state-to-state wealth transfers are already happening. According to the Tax Foundation, most Republican-voting states receive more in federal funding than they pay in federal taxes, while most Democratic-voting states receive less federal money than they pay in federal taxes.
That means traditionally blue states like California are now perpetually subsidizing — or in Ryan's parlance, "bailing out" — traditionally red states like Indiana. Thus, federal aid to states could actually reduce the state-to-state subsidies conservatives say they oppose.
Congressional Republicans will undoubtedly ignore these facts. Their proposed solution to the budget emergency could instead be a Newt Gingrich-backed initiative letting states default on outstanding obligations by declaring bankruptcy. Again, the word is fraught with new connotations.
Whereas sick or laid-off individuals occasionally claim a genuine inability to repay debts and thus a need for bankruptcy protections, states can never legitimately claim such a need because they are never actually "bankrupt." Why? Because they always posses the power to raise revenue. The power is called taxation — and destroying that authority is what the new bankruptcy idea is really about. It would let states avoid tax increases on the wealthy, renege on contractual promises to public employees and destroy the country's creditworthiness.
Blocking state "bailouts" and letting states declare "bankruptcy" are radical notions, especially in a bad economy. One would result in recession-exacerbating public layoffs; the other would institutionalize an anti-tax zealotry that destroys tomorrow's middle class in order to protect today's rich. That's why advocates of these ideas have resorted to manipulating language. They know the only way to make such extremism a reality is to distort the vernacular — and if we aren't cognizant of their scheme, they will succeed.

McCarthyism Revisited: Peter King's Modern-day Witch Hunt
"There is nothing radical or un-American in holding these hearings," Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) claimed Thursday as he launched his McCarthyite probe of American Muslims. He could not have been more wrong. If King is looking for threats to our freedoms and values, a mirror would be the place to start.
Here's why. Imagine a young man, a Muslim, who changes in troubling ways. His two best friends become concerned, then alarmed, as the young man abandons Western dress, displays a newfound religiosity and begins to echo jihadist rhetoric about the decadence of American society. Both friends suspect that the young man has become radicalized and might even attempt some kind of terrorist attack.
One friend is Muslim, the other Christian. Does the Muslim friend have a greater responsibility than the Christian to contact the authorities? By the logic of King's witch hunt, he does.
The Homeland Security Committee hearings that King has convened are billed as an inquiry into "The Extent of Radicalization in the American Muslim Community and That Community's Response." In other words, King suspects that the Muslim community is somehow complicit. Individuals of one faith are implicated; individuals of another faith are not.
As Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), one of two Muslims in Congress, said in his moving testimony, King's premise assigns "collective blame" to American Muslims. "Demanding a community response . . . asserts that the entire community bears responsibility," Ellison said.
In his pugnacious opening statement, King noted that his plan to hold these hearings had been criticized by "special-interest groups and the media," which he said had gone into "paroxysms of rage and hysteria" at the prospect. "To back down would be a craven surrender to political correctness," he said. In case someone missed the point, King later said it was our duty to "put aside political correctness and define who our enemy truly is."
King asserted that "this committee cannot live in denial." He then went straight there – into denial – by paying no heed to the witness best situated to answer the committee's question.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca testified in opposition to King's premise, citing figures demonstrating that radical, extremist acts of crime are committed by non-Muslims as well, and that seven of the past 10 known terrorist plots involving al-Qaeda have been foiled in part by information provided by Muslim Americans. Baca said his officers have good, productive relationships with Muslim leaders and citizens. Law enforcement officials from other jurisdictions where there are large Muslim communities could have given similar testimony, had they been invited.
King is trying to peddle the hooey that moderate Muslims do not speak out against extremism. It took Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Tex.) to note the irony that among the committee's witnesses were two devout Muslims – one Syrian American, the other Somali American – who were there to speak out, quite loudly, against extremism.
King, in effect, was demanding to know why he didn't see what was taking place before his eyes. Perhaps he was distracted by the need to maintain constant vigilance for any hint of political correctness.
That's really what King's grandstanding is all about. The purpose of these hearings isn't to gather information. If it were, officials of the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security would have been asked to testify. In addition to inviting Minneapolis-based Abdirizak Bihi, a Somali American whose nephew was recruited by the terrorist organization al-Shabab, King could have brought in police from the Twin Cities to testify about cooperation by the Somali immigrant community.
King's intent is theatrical, not substantive; he's not trying to elicit facts, he's inviting catcalls – and cheers.
It should not be so, but Islamophobia is a powerful force in American politics. There are those who will applaud King for associating the phrase "American Muslim community" with the phrase "who our enemy truly is."
But decency is a powerful force, too. The hearing's indelible moment came when Ellison broke down in tears. He was telling the story of Mohammad Salman Hamdani, a young Muslim who rushed into the World Trade Center to try to rescue victims just before the towers collapsed. His remains were found in the rubble.
Hamdani was not just a Muslim, Ellison said, fighting to choke out words that no one could dismiss as politically correct. He was "an American who gave everything for his fellow Americans."

The Destruction Of Middle America: Karl Rove's Secretly-Funded Crossroads GPS Attacks Unions
Karl Rove's secretly-funded Crossroads GPS is spending $750,000 airing a terribly misleading ad attacking public-sector labor unions. With declining support for the GOP's anti-union stance, Rove's group is looking towards the 2012 elections and aiming to counteract that slide by unfairly demonizing unions.
The ad also attempts to lay the blame on President Obama and tell viewers to tell him "you've had enough." The group spent at least $17 million in the 2010 midterm elections, and along with Rove's American Crossroads PAC, is planning to spend $120 million in the 2012 elections. Here is what the ad says, and why it is wrong:
"Why are Democrats shutting down state capitols to protect a system that pays unionized government workers 42% more than non-union workers?"
False. As CMD has reported, an Economic Policy Institute report finds that, when controlling for education, and taking benefits into account, "full-time state and local government employees in Wisconsin are undercompensated by 8.2% compared with otherwise similar private sector workers." In other words, it is unfair to compare compensation for an unskilled worker with a teacher who holds a master's degree.
"A system that collects hundreds of millions in mandatory dues to back liberals who support government unions . . ."
False. See the U.S. Supreme Court decision Communication Workers of America v. Beck, 487 U. S. 735 (1988): nonunion employees cannot be required to pay dues to support political activities. In a unionized workplace, employees who choose not to join the union still reap the benefits of union representatives bargaining on their behalf, but they can only be required to pay dues towards that representation.
"One union boss explains . . ." the ad says, quoting from a July 2009 speech by National Education Association General Counsel Bob Chanin that, taken out of context, makes unions sound like money-sucking power-hogs.
False–through misleading editing. The full quote is actually a reminder to teachers that their interests and those of their students will not be guaranteed by the dignity of the profession, or their passion for teaching:
So the bad news, or depending on your point of view, the good news, is that NEA and its affiliates will continue to be attacked by conservative and right-wing groups as long as we continue to be effective advocates for public education, for education employees, and for human and civil rights. And that brings me to my final and most important point. Which is why, at least in my opinion, NEA and its affiliates are such effective advocates. Despite what some among us would like to believe, it is not because of our creative ideas. It is not because of the merit of our positions. It is not because we care about children. And it is not because we have a vision of a great public school for every child. NEA and its affiliates are effective advocates because we have power. And we have power because there are more than 3.2 million people who are willing to pay us hundreds of millions of dollars in dues each year because they believe that we are the unions that can most effectively represent them, the unions that can protect their rights and advance their interests as education employees.
In light of the present attack on educators and other public employees by the likes of Scott Walker and Karl Rove, Chanin was correct. The integrity of public education is not being protected by good ideas, sacrifices by teachers, or by widespread recognition that education is an investment in the future. The primary defenders of public education and public educators are unions.
The same goes for unions defending the integrity of other public services against right-wing attacks. The real motivation for Rove, Walker, and the like is to crush union political power. Wisconsin's Senate majority leader has boasted about this partisan political strategy today. And in our post-Citizens United world, the only counterweight looking out for middle-class interests are labor unions. And only labor unions are powerful enough to attempt to counterbalance corporate interests and speak on behalf of working people in the election process. Despite losing one battle today, the fight to protect America's middle class andw working people has only just begun.

Richard / Hart
After working for many years as a designer, in 2009 Richard Hart began exhibiting as a visual artist. Although his work encompasses a diverse array of disciplines, painting is at the core of Hart's practise. His work is rooted in the experience of a life lived in Africa, and explores its mythical and spiritual landscape. It takes cues from ritual, witchcraft and Muti, as well as religious movements such as Shembe and the Zionist movement, weaving together factual and fictive narratives to speculate on an Africa that exists just beyond our reach.
This series, entitled Sun, Moon, Earth, Here Now derives from a photographic series taken on a recent trip to Africa. His photographs have been transformed to create mystical and elemental montages that imply some sort of narrative in the way that they interact with and inter-relate to each other. Not only do these works perfectly exemplify Richard's keen eye for design, but also his interest in symbolism. Hart, however, avoids over-explanation of these symbols, allowing people to make their own interpretations and personal narratives, with the knowledge that each object and idea has a very personal meaning to him. He says: "my work often employs rocks. they are particularly potent objects for me, charged with the energy of place and of time. With this series of prints though, their solidity – their "rockness" – is undermined by allowing them to stand for abstract ideas such as god(s) or magic."
As his work is concerned with texture and physicality, for this series Hart has chosen to print onto muslin cloth, giving them a wonderful rawness, graininess and tactility.

When the old man waved first, and offered the faintest of smiles, I knew we'd made progress in making Puerto Cayo, Ecuador our home. I begin almost every day with a one-hour walk from our home into town and back. And every day, without fail, I see the same local people, going to the same places in their own morning routine. In the beginning, the Puerto Cayans weren't unfriendly at all. They just didn't seem overly friendly.


We attended the Tuesday evening meeting (4 Sep) in which 5 of our community members addressed the supervisors. Collectively they asked the board to pledge to do no harm to our property values, change the conditional use permit process and add #11 prohibited land use, combat ranges, to our zoning code. Additionally, one of the speakers, a licensed and practicing real estate appraiser discussed the permanent negative impact 'External Obsolescence' would have on our property values should a combat range be approved by the county. We all learned that external obsolescence is permanent-there is no reversal.
I debated this week about sending you my take away from last Tuesday's meeting. I decided to air my feelings. The board's continued inaction is disheartening.
Bottom line up front, the board's handling of this situation is sadly breeding distrust. Failing to provide the citizens, whose concerns and fears have been candidly set forth, a direct and concrete response on what the county is doing in support of us is inexcusable. At no time has a course of action been set forth by the board specifically outlining the legal requirements that must be followed in answering our questions and responding to our requests. What I heard Tuesday evening were a lot of empty words that suggest our requests/issues are not a priority for the county. Instead of identifying the policy and procedures that are in place that must be followed in order to respond to our requests, we learn the county has now decided updating the comprehensive plan and zoning ordinances trump dealing with one issue, the request to protect our homes, land, and farms from the invasion of a tactical, combat and military style firing range and training facility. It is clear we are all anxious home and land owners living everyday with the fear a combat range will be supported by this county, grossly impacting our property values with no opportunity to recoup our losses. Updating the comprehensive plan and zoning ordinances is an undertaking of monumental magnitude that will take years to finalize. Several board members nodded in union when one of them actually chuckled when he reminded the group how long it takes the government to get anything done. Yes, we heard that our pleas have not fallen on deaf ears and that our concerns have been heard, but, it's going to take time. I feel strongly we need the board to be honest with us. If our request is in the 'too hard' category, if the county has no clue how to proceed, simply tell us. Tell us that the county is diligently seeking the legal course of action to protect our homes, our tranquility, our peace, and our livelihoods, if that is true. I find it intriguing that one board member was candid enough to tell us he could not support a combat range in the county, yet everyone else chose silence. I take it that the one board member who opted to take a stand did not break any parliamentary rules that evening. He certainly was not afraid to state his opinion.
We, the citizens, deserve straightforward answers. Because of the lack of transparency I have even more questions to add to the groups list.
1. What are the legal ramifications associated with adding #11 prohibited activity to the existing prohibitions? Why, specifically, can't that one request be heard and decided on?
2. Why is updating the comprehensive plan and zoning ordinances necessary now, when it was not previously?
3. How long must we wait to secure a definitive answer on precluding any CUP associated with a combat training facility in NKC.
Sir, we need answers. We need to rest assured our homes and our livelihoods are not in jeopardy. We deserve full disclosure. I do want to trust our county government to be accountable for protecting everything we all have worked and strived for. Don't allow our homes, our farms, and our land to be made worthless because of an industrial, military type combat training facility was considered more worthwhile than the dedicated citizens who make this county an ideal place to live. Never in our wildest imaginations did we ever think we would have to rally together as a community to fight such an absurd subject.

Yesterday a study was published in JAMA Psychiatry. In it researchers looks at the impact of 14 weeks of 3 different doses of lisdexamfetamine (Vyvance) on binge eating disorder and weight in 260 patients via a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, forced dose titration, placebo-controlled trial. Eligibility for the study included meeting the DSM-IV criteria for binge eating disorder, having a BMI between 25 and 45, and being between the ages of 18 and 55. There were a boatload of exclusion criteria with perhaps the most important being having any other eating or psychiatric disorder, having had a history of substance abuse, or having been recently treated with a psychostimulant, or having had a recent psychological or weight management treatment history.
The study's primary endpoint was the number of self-scored binge eating days, and among the secondary endpoints was weight.
The results were striking, especially in those taking the highest dose who nearly stopped binging.
Weight loss was also not insignificant, again, especially with the higher dose, with those folks losing an average of nearly 10lbs over the 11 weeks (versus an average loss of 1/5th of a pound for those taking a placebo).
Unfortunately there were also side effects with dramatically more people in the highest dosing arm reporting dry mouth, and insomnia. All told 5% of the highest dosing arm dropped out due to adverse effects.
While far from conclusive, this study is promising. Binge eating disorder is a tremendously difficult condition to endure. Psychologically it can be devastating due to overwhelming feelings of guilt which in turn can lead to decreased self-esteem and decreased perceived self-efficacy. Right now treatment for binge eating disorder involves cognitive behavioural therapy, and indeed, there's fair success, but were there a safe medication that could be used as an adjunct to counselling, speaking personally, I'd be thrilled.
There's still lots of work to be done to prove long term efficacy, safety, and tolerability. Fingers crossed.
What I find the most heartening about the study is the fact that it was even done. So much money is invested in magic weight loss pills, where the focus is on how to burn fat or alter the body ... especially without having to change eating or exercise habits. Whether Vyvance is as effective as it appears to be, based on a preliminary and relatively small study, I like that they're (a) looking for drugs which help to alter behaviour, and (b) that B.E.D. is being taken more and more seriously as a legitmate psychological condition.
It's a small ray of hope, but it's still a ray.

\section{Introduction}

Understanding the nucleon spin structure is one of the key questions in hadronic physics. It opens a window on a wide range of non-pertubative effects in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) currently studied at many facilities such as Jefferson Lab, RHIC and COMPASS~\cite{Bacchetta:2016ccz}, and is a major pillar of the physics case of the future electron-ion collider (EIC)~\cite{Accardi:2012qut}. Although the proper decomposition of the nucleon spin into quark and gluon contributions constitutes one of the fundamental motivations in this field, see e.g.~\cite{Leader:2013jra,Wakamatsu:2014zza,Liu:2015xha}, the spin structure turns out to be much richer owing to spin-orbit correlations~\cite{Lorce:2011kd,Lorce:2014mxa,Lorce:2015sqe}.

In a former paper~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}, the quark longitudinal spin-orbit correlation was studied in detail by performing a (chiral-even) helicity decomposition of the quark energy-momentum tensor. It has, in particular, been shown that the quark longitudinal spin-orbit correlation can quantitatively be expressed in terms of parton distributions. Both current phenomenological extractions based on experimental data and lattice calculations indicate that the quark spin is, in average, opposite to the quark kinetic orbital angular momentum (OAM).

In this Letter, we discuss the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation by revisiting the (chiral-odd) transversity decomposition of the quark energy-momentum tensor considered a decade ago by Burkardt~\cite{Burkardt:2005hp,Burkardt:2006ev}. Mimicking the approach used by Ji to relate angular momentum contributions to generalized parton distributions (GPDs)~\cite{Ji:1996ek}, Burkardt decomposed the symmetric energy-momentum tensor and introduced accordingly the correlation between quark transversity and total angular momentum. Here we consider the more general asymmetric energy-momentum tensor leading to another transverse correlation, now between quark transversity and OAM.

The Letter is organized as follows: In section~\ref{sec2}, we define the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation operator and express the corresponding expectation value in terms of tensor generalized form factors. In section~\ref{sec3} we relate these generalized form factors to moments of measurable parton distributions and derive for the first time the Wandzura-Wilczek expression for the second Mellin moment of twist-3 transversity generalized parton distributions, along with a new sum rule. In section~\ref{sec4}, we compare the various contributions obtained on the lattice with relativistic quark model predictions, provide an estimate of the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation, and we conclude the paper with section~\ref{sec5}.

\section{Quark spin-orbit correlations}\label{sec2}

\subsection{Decomposition based on polarization}

It is well known that the quark field operator can be decomposed into right- and left-handed contributions
\begin{equation}
\psi=\psi_R+\psi_L,\qquad \psi_{R,L}=\tfrac{1}{2}(\mathds 1\pm\gamma_5)\psi.
\end{equation}
The quark number and helicity light-front operators can then respectively be seen as the \emph{sum} and \emph{difference}
\begin{align}
\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} \gamma^+\psi&=\hat N^q_R+\hat N^q_L,\\
\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} \gamma^+\gamma_5\psi&=\hat N^q_R-\hat N^q_L
\end{align}
 of the right and left-handed densities
\begin{equation}
\hat N^q_{R,L}=\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi}_{R,L} \gamma^+\psi_{R,L},
\end{equation}
where $a^\pm=\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(a^0\pm a^3)$ for a generic four-vector $a$, and $\mathrm{d}^3x=\mathrm{d} x^-\,\mathrm{d}^2x_\perp$.

Alternatively, the quark field operator can be decomposed into up and down transverse polarizations~\cite{Barone:2001sp}
\begin{equation}
\psi=\psi_\uparrow+\psi_\downarrow,\qquad \psi_{\uparrow,\downarrow}=\tfrac{1}{2}(\mathds 1\pm\gamma^j\gamma_5)\psi
\end{equation}
with $j=1$ or $2$. While the sum of up and down densities naturally gives the quark number operator, their difference defines the so-called quark transversity
\begin{align}
\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} \gamma^+\psi&=\hat N^q_\uparrow+\hat N^q_\downarrow,\\
\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} i\sigma^{j+}\gamma_5\psi&=\hat N^q_\uparrow-\hat N^q_\downarrow,
\end{align}
where
\begin{equation}
\hat N^q_{\uparrow,\downarrow}=\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi}_{\uparrow,\downarrow} \gamma^+\psi_{\uparrow,\downarrow}.
\end{equation}

The same decompositions can be performed with the quark light-front OAM operator
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
\sqrt{2}\,\epsilon^\mu_{\phantom{\mu}+\alpha\beta}\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} \gamma^+x^\alpha\tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^\beta\psi&=\hat L^{q,\mu}_R+\hat L^{q,\mu}_L \\
&=\hat L^{q,\mu}_\uparrow+\hat L^{q,\mu}_\downarrow,
\end{split}
\end{equation}
where
\begin{equation}
\hat L^{q,\mu}_a=\sqrt{2}\,\epsilon^\mu_{\phantom{\mu}+\alpha\beta}\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi}_a \gamma^+x^{\alpha}\tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^{\beta}\psi_a
\end{equation}
with the convention $\epsilon_{0123}=+1$, $a=R,L,\uparrow,\downarrow$, and $\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^\beta=\overset{\rightarrow}{\partial}\!\!\!\!\phantom{\partial}^\beta-\overset{\leftarrow}{\partial}\!\!\!\!\phantom{\partial}^\beta-2igA^\beta$ the symmetric gauge covariant derivative. Considering instead the differences of densities leads us to longitudinal and transverse spin-orbit correlations ($\epsilon^{12}_T=-\epsilon^{21}_T=+1$ and $a^{[\mu}b^{\nu]}=a^\mu b^\nu-a^\nu b^\mu$)
\begin{align}
\hat C^q_z&\equiv\epsilon^{lk}_T\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} \gamma^+\gamma_5\,x^l \tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^k\psi=\hat L^{q,+}_R-\hat L^{q,+}_L,\label{Cz}\\
\hat C^q_j&\equiv\sqrt{2}\,\epsilon^{jl}_T\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,\overline{\psi} i\sigma^{j+}\gamma_5\,x^{[-} \tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^{l]}\psi=\hat L^{q,j}_\uparrow-\hat L^{q,j}_\downarrow\label{CT}
\end{align}
without summation over $j$ in~\eqref{CT}. These are the diagonal components of a $3\times 3$ matrix whose entries are the directions of quark polarization and OAM.
\newline

The longitudinal spin-orbit correlation~\eqref{Cz} has been studied in~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}. In this Letter, we focus on the transverse spin-orbit correlation~\eqref{CT} which can conveniently be rewritten as (once again without summation over $j$)
\begin{equation}\label{OAMT}
\hat C^q_j=\sqrt{2}\,\epsilon^{jl}_T\int\mathrm{d}^3x \left[x^-\hat T^{j+l}_{q5}-x^l\hat T^{j+-}_{q5}\right]
\end{equation}
with $\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}$ the quark energy-momentum tensor where $\gamma^\mu$ has been replaced by $i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\gamma_5$
\begin{equation}
\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}(x)=\overline{\psi}(x) i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\gamma_5\,\tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^\nu\psi(x).
\end{equation}
We added the index $5$ to indicate the presence of the matrix $\gamma_5$ and to distinguish it from $\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q}=\overline{\psi} i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\,\tfrac{i}{2}\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^\nu\psi$. These two operators are equivalent owing to the identity $i\sigma^{\mu\nu}\gamma_5=\tfrac{1}{2}\,\epsilon^{\mu\nu\alpha\beta}\sigma_{\alpha\beta}$.

\subsection{Parametrization}

We find that the non-forward matrix elements of $\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}$ can be parametrized in terms of seven generalized form factors (GFFs)
\begin{equation}\label{EMTparam}
\langle p',\uvec s'|\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}(0)|p,\uvec s\rangle=\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}u(p,\uvec s)
\end{equation}
with
\begin{align}
\Gamma^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}&=\tfrac{P^\nu P^{[\lambda}\Delta^{\mu]}\gamma_5}{2M^2}\,A^q_T(t)+\tfrac{g^{\nu[\lambda}\Delta^{\mu]}\gamma_5}{2}\,\tilde A^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&\quad+\tfrac{P^\nu P^{[\lambda}\gamma^{\mu]}\gamma_5}{M}\,B^q_T(t)+M\,g^{\nu[\lambda}\gamma^{\mu]}\gamma_5\,\tilde B^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&\quad+\tfrac{\Delta^\nu \Delta^{[\lambda}\gamma^{\mu]}\gamma_5}{4M}\,C^q_T(t)+P^\nu i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\gamma_5\,D^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&\quad+\tfrac{P^{[\lambda} i\sigma^{\mu\nu]}\gamma_5}{2}\,\tilde D^q_T(t),\label{param}
\end{align}
where $\uvec s$ and $\uvec s'$ are the initial and final rest-frame polarization unit vectors, $M$ is the nucleon mass, $P=\tfrac{p'+p}{2}$ is the average four-momentum, and $t=\Delta^2$ is the square of the four-momentum transfer $\Delta=p'-p$. Note that the last term is totally antisymmetric over all three Lorentz indices, so that $\tfrac{P^{[\lambda} i\sigma^{\mu\nu]}\gamma_5}{2}=P^\nu i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\gamma_5+P^{[\lambda} i\sigma^{\mu]\nu}\gamma_5$. To recover the twist-2 parametrization of  H\"agler and Diehl~\cite{Hagler:2004yt,Diehl:2005jf}, one has to symmetrize over the pair of indices $\{\mu\nu\}$, antisymmetrize over the pair of indices $[\lambda\mu]$ and remove all the traces~\cite{Geyer:1999uq}. As a result, the tilde GFFs become redundant
\begin{align}
3\tilde A^q_T(t)&\stackrel{\text{tw}-2}{=}\left(\tau-1\right)A^q_T(t)+C^q_T(t)-D^q_T(t),\label{LTAtT}\\
3\tilde B^q_T(t)&\stackrel{\text{tw}-2}{=}\left(\tau-1\right)B^q_T(t)-\tau C^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t),\\
3\tilde D^q_T(t)&\stackrel{\text{tw}-2}{=}-D^q_T(t),\label{LTDtT}
\end{align}
where $\tau=\tfrac{t}{4M^2}$. This means that only four GFFs survive at leading twist in agreement with the results of~\cite{Hagler:2004yt,Diehl:2005jf}. More precisely, we find that the two parametrizations at leading twist are related as follows
\begin{align}
A^q_T(t)+B^q_T(t)&=B_{T20}(t),\\
B^q_T(t)&=2\tilde A_{T20}(t)+B_{T20}(t),\label{BTq}\\
C^q_T(t)&=2\tilde B_{T21}(t),\\
D^q_T(t)-B^q_T(t)&=A_{T20}(t)-2\tau\tilde A_{T20}(t).\label{DTq}
\end{align}

We are ultimately interested in the matrix elements of Eq.~\eqref{OAMT} which involves one explicit power of $x$. It is therefore sufficient to expand Eq.~\eqref{EMTparam} up to linear order in $\Delta$~\cite{Leader:2013jra,Bakker:2004ib}. Using the light-front spinors (see e.g. Appendix A of~\cite{Lorce:2011zta}) with the same rest-frame polarization $\uvec s'=\uvec s=(\uvec s_\perp,s_z)$, we obtain
\begin{align}\label{expansion}
\langle p'&,\uvec s|\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}|p,\uvec s\rangle=\nonumber\\
&\left[\tfrac{2P^\nu P^{[\lambda}S^{\mu]}}{M}+\tfrac{MP^\nu\,i\epsilon^{+\lambda\mu\Delta}}{P^+}\right]\left(B^q_T-D^q_T\right)\nonumber\\
&+\left[2M\,g^{\nu[\lambda}S^{\mu]}+\tfrac{M\,g^{\nu[\lambda}i\epsilon^{\mu]+P\Delta}}{P^+}\right]\tilde B^q_T\nonumber\\
&-\tfrac{P^\nu i\epsilon^{\lambda\mu P\Delta}}{M}\,B^q_T-M\,i\epsilon^{\lambda\mu\nu\Delta}\,\tilde D^q_T+\mathcal O(\Delta^2)
\end{align}
with the covariant spin vector $S^\mu=[s_zP^+,-s_zP^-+\tfrac{\uvec P_\perp}{P^+}\cdot(M\uvec s_\perp+\uvec P_\perp s_z),M\uvec s_\perp+\uvec P_\perp s_z]$ satisfying $P\cdot S=0$ and $S^2=-M^2(1-\tau\,s^2_z)$. For convenience, we removed the argument of the GFFs when evaluated at $t=0$, e.g. $B^q_T\equiv B^q_T(0)$, and we wrote four-vectors as indices whenever they appear contracted, e.g. $\epsilon^{\lambda\mu P\Delta}\equiv\epsilon^{\lambda\mu\alpha\beta}P_\alpha\Delta_\beta$.

Substituting the expansion~\eqref{expansion} into the matrix element of~\eqref{OAMT} and working in the symmetric light-front frame, i.e. with $\uvec P_\perp=\uvec 0_\perp$, we find
\begin{equation}
C^q_j\equiv\tfrac{\langle P,\uvec s|\hat C^q_j|P,\uvec s\rangle}{\langle P,\uvec s|P,\uvec s\rangle}=-\tfrac{M}{2\sqrt{2}P^+}(B^q_T+2\tilde B^q_T+4\tilde D^q_T).
\end{equation}
Like the longitudinal one~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}, the transverse spin-orbit correlation does not depend on the nucleon polarization, as a consequence of parity conservation. However, unlike the longitudinal case, it depends on the light-front momentum $P^+$. This dependence can be understood as coming from the transverse component of the OAM operator, since the transversity operator is leading twist and hence $P^+$ independent. Indeed, contrary to the longitudinal component, the decomposition of the transverse component of total angular momentum into spin and OAM contributions is known to be in general frame dependent~\cite{Leader:2013jra}. Note also that in the rest frame $\sqrt{2}P^+=M$ we recover the familiar $\tfrac{1}{2}$ global factor~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa,Ji:1996ek}.

\section{Link with parton distributions}\label{sec3}

No fundamental probe coupling to $\hat T^{\lambda\mu\nu}_{q5}$ is known in particle physics. It is however possible to relate the corresponding GFFs to specific moments of measurable parton distributions. From the leading-twist component $\hat T^{j++}_{q5}$, we find in agreement with~\cite{Hagler:2004yt,Diehl:2005jf}
\begin{align}
\int\mathrm{d} x\, x H^q_T(x,\xi,t)&=-\tau A^q_T(t)-B^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&=A_{T20}(t),\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\, x E^q_T(x,\xi,t)&=A^q_T(t)+B^q_T(t)=B_{T20}(t),\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\, x \tilde H^q_T(x,\xi,t)&=-\tfrac{1}{2} A^q_T(t)=\tilde A_{T20}(t),\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\, x \tilde E^q_T(x,\xi,t)&=-\xi C^q_T(t)=-2\xi\tilde B_{T21}(t),\label{xEtT}
\end{align}
where the skewness variable is given by $\xi=-\Delta^+/2P^+$ and the functions $H^q_T(x,\xi,t)$, $E^q_T(x,\xi,t)$, $\tilde H^q_T(x,\xi,t)$, and $\tilde E^q_T(x,\xi,t)$ are the GPDs parametrizing the non-local twist-2 tensor light-front quark correlator~\cite{Diehl:2001pm,Diehl:2003ny,Meissner:2009ww}
\begin{align}
\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\mathrm{d} z^-}{2\pi}\,e^{ixP^+z^-}&\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi}(-\tfrac{z^-}{2})i\sigma^{j+}\gamma_5\mathcal W\psi(\tfrac{z^-}{2})|p,\uvec s\rangle\nonumber\\
&=\tfrac{i\epsilon_T^{jl}}{2P^+}\,\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma^{+l}_{qT}u(p,\uvec s)
\end{align}
with $\mathcal W=\mathcal P \exp[ ig\int^{-z^-/2}_{z^-/2}\mathrm{d} y^-A^+(y^-)]$ a straight light-front Wilson line and
\begin{align}
&\Gamma^{+l}_{qT}=i\sigma^{+l}\,H^q_T(x,\xi,t)+\tfrac{\gamma^+\Delta^l_\perp-\Delta^+\gamma^l_\perp}{2M}\, E^q_T(x,\xi,t)\nonumber\\
&+\tfrac{P^+\Delta^l_\perp}{M^2}\,\tilde H^q_T(x,\xi,t) -\tfrac{P^+\gamma^l_\perp}{M}\,\tilde E^q_T(x,\xi,t)
\end{align}
written in the symmetric frame $\uvec P_\perp=\uvec 0_\perp$.

\subsection{Equations of motion}

The relations for the tilde GFFs can be obtained using the following QCD identities
\begin{align}
\overline{\psi} i\sigma^{\lambda\mu}\gamma_5\, i\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}_{\mu}\psi&=2m\,\overline{\psi}\gamma^\lambda\gamma_5\psi+i\partial^\lambda(\overline{\psi}\gamma_5\psi),\\
\overline{\psi} i\sigma^{[\lambda\mu}\gamma_5\, i\overset{\leftrightarrow}{D}\!\!\!\!\!\phantom{D}^{\nu]}\psi&=-2\epsilon^{\lambda\mu\nu\alpha}\partial_\alpha(\overline{\psi}\psi),\label{QCDidentity}
\end{align}
where $m$ is the quark mass. Taking the corresponding matrix elements and using some Gordon and $\epsilon$-identities, we find
\begin{align}
\left(\tau-1\right)A^q_T(t)-3\tilde A^q_T(t)&+C^q_T(t)-D^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&=\tfrac{m}{M}\,G^q_P(t)-\Pi_q(t),\label{AtT}\\
\left(\tau-1\right)B^q_T(t)-3\tilde B^q_T(t)&-\tau C^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t)\nonumber\\
&=\tfrac{m}{M}\,G^q_A(t),\\
D^q_T(t)+3\tilde D^q_T(t)&=\Sigma_q(t),\label{DtT}
\end{align}
which generalize the leading-twist expressions~\eqref{LTAtT}-\eqref{LTDtT}. The FFs on the right-hand side parametrize the scalar, pseudoscalar and axial-vector local correlators as follows
\begin{align}
\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi}\psi|p,\uvec s\rangle&=\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma_{qS}u(p,\uvec s),\\
\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi}\gamma_5\psi|p,\uvec s\rangle&=\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma_{qP}u(p,\uvec s),\\
\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi} \gamma^\mu\gamma_5\psi|p,\uvec s\rangle&=\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma^\mu_{qA}u(p,\uvec s)
\end{align}
with
\begin{align}
\Gamma_{qS}&=\mathds 1\,\Sigma_q(t),\\
\Gamma_{qP}&=\gamma_5\,\Pi_q(t),\\
\Gamma^\mu_{qA}&=\gamma^\mu\gamma_5\, G^q_A(t)+\tfrac{\Delta^\mu\gamma_5}{2M}\,G^q_P(t).
\end{align}

The quark transverse spin-orbit correlation is therefore given by the expression
\begin{align}
\tfrac{\sqrt{2}P^+}{M}\,C^q_j&=\tfrac{1}{3}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[H^q_T(x,0,0)+\tfrac{1}{2}\bar E^q_T(x,0,0)]\nonumber\\
&\qquad\qquad-\tfrac{2}{3}[\Sigma_q(0)-\tfrac{m}{2M}\,G^q_A(0)],\label{Cqj}
\end{align}
where $\bar E^q_T(x,\xi,t)\equiv 2\tilde H^q_T(x,\xi,t)+E^q_T(x,\xi,t)$. Interestingly, it is very similar to the corresponding expression for the longitudinal spin-orbit correlation~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}
\begin{equation}
C^q_z=\tfrac{1}{2}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\tilde H_q(x,0,0)-\tfrac{1}{2}\,[F^q_1(0)-\tfrac{m}{2M}\,H^q_1(0)]
\end{equation}
and Ji's relation~\cite{Ji:1996ek} for the quark OAM
\begin{equation}\label{Jirel}
L^q_z=\tfrac{1}{2}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[H_q(x,0,0)+E_q(x,0,0)]-\tfrac{1}{2}\,G^q_A(0).
\end{equation}
One might be surprised that Eq.~\eqref{Cqj} involves thirds instead of halves. They appear because of the factors 3 in Eqs.~\eqref{AtT}-\eqref{DtT} which trace back to the fact that $C^q_j$ is defined from a rank-3 tensor, while $L^q_z$ and $C^q_z$ are defined from rank-2 tensors.

Let us stress that the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation introduced in this Letter corresponds actually to the correlation between quark transversity and OAM $\langle L^q_zT^q_z\rangle$. The similarity of our result~\eqref{Cqj} with Eq.~\eqref{Jirel}, which can be understood as the difference between total angular momentum and spin $\langle L^q_zS^N_z\rangle=\langle J^q_zS^N_z\rangle-\langle S^q_zS^N_z\rangle$ according to~\cite{Ji:1996ek,Lorce:2014mxa}, hints towards the identifications $\langle J^q_xT^q_x\rangle\propto\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[H^q_T(x,0,0)+\tfrac{1}{2}\bar E^q_T(x,0,0)]$ and $\langle S^q_xT^q_x\rangle\propto \Sigma_q(0)$ in the chiral limit $m=0$. In particular, it suggests that the scalar charge can be interpreted as a measure of the correlation between quark transversity and spin. This interpretation is further supported by the following simple reasoning in instant form. The difference between spin $\psi^\dagger\sigma^{ij}\psi$ and transversity $\psi^\dagger\gamma^0\sigma^{ij}\psi$ is a factor $\gamma^0$, and hence is of relativistic nature~\cite{Jaffe:1991kp}. The correlation between spin and transversity then reads $\psi^\dagger\sigma^{ij}\gamma^0\sigma^{ij}\psi$ (without summation over $i,j$), which simplifies to the scalar bilinear $\psi^\dagger\gamma^0\psi=\overline\psi\psi$.

\subsection{Twist-3 tensor GPDs}

The tilde GFFs can alternatively be expressed in terms of twist-3 tensor GPDs. From the twist-3 components $\hat T^{jl+}_{q5}$ and $\hat T^{+-+}_{q5}$, we obtain the following relations
\begin{align}
\int\mathrm{d} x\,x H'^q_2&=-\xi\!\left[\tau C^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t)+\tilde D^q_T(t)\right],\label{xHp}\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\,x E'^q_2&=\xi\!\left[C^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t)+\tilde D^q_T(t)\right],\label{xEp}\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\tilde H'^q_2&=-\left(1-\tau\right)B^q_T(t)-\tilde B^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t),\\
\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\tilde E'^q_2&=\xi\!\left[\left(1-\tau\right)A^q_T(t)+\tilde A^q_T(t)+D^q_T(t)\right],
\end{align}
where the functions $H'^q_2(x,\xi,t)$, $E'^q_2(x,\xi,t)$, $\tilde H'^q_2(x,\xi,t)$, and $\tilde E'^q_2(x,\xi,t)$ are the GPDs parametrizing the non-local twist-3 tensor light-front quark correlators~\cite{Meissner:2009ww}
\begin{align}
\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\mathrm{d} z^-}{2\pi}\,e^{ixP^+z^-}&\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi}(-\tfrac{z^-}{2})i\sigma^{jl}\gamma_5\mathcal W\psi(\tfrac{z^-}{2})|p,\uvec s\rangle\nonumber\\
&=\tfrac{M}{2(P^+)^2}\,\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma^{jl}_{qT}u(p,\uvec s),\\
\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\mathrm{d} z^-}{2\pi}\,e^{ixP^+z^-}&\langle p',\uvec s'|\overline{\psi}(-\tfrac{z^-}{2})i\sigma^{+-}\gamma_5\mathcal W\psi(\tfrac{z^-}{2})|p,\uvec s\rangle\nonumber\\
&=\tfrac{M}{2(P^+)^2}\,\overline u(p',\uvec s')\Gamma^{+-}_{qT}u(p,\uvec s)
\end{align}
with
\begin{align}
\Gamma^{jl}_{qT}&=-i\epsilon_T^{jl}\left[\gamma^+H'^q_2(x,\xi,t)+\tfrac{i\sigma^{+\Delta}}{2M}\, E'^q_2(x,\xi,t)\right],\\
\Gamma^{+-}_{qT}&=\gamma^+\gamma_5\, \tilde H'^q_2(x,\xi,t)+\tfrac{P^+\gamma_5}{M}\, \tilde E'^q_2(x,\xi,t).
\end{align}

Since the eight (twist-2 and twist-3) tensor GPD moments are expressed in terms of seven GFFs, there exists a sum rule among them. Adding Eqs.~\eqref{xHp} and~\eqref{xEp} and using Eq.~\eqref{xEtT}, we find
\begin{equation}
\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\left[(1-\tau)\tilde E^q_T+H'^q_2+E'^q_2\right]=0.
\end{equation}
Moreover, using the relations~\eqref{AtT}-\eqref{DtT}, we obtain
\begin{align}
&\tfrac{1}{\tau-1}\tfrac{1}{\xi}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\left[H'^q_2+\tau E'^q_2\right]=\tfrac{1}{3}\Sigma_q\nonumber\\
&\qquad\qquad +\tfrac{2}{3}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\left[H^q_T-2\tau \tilde H^q_T+\bar E^q_T\right],\\
&\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\,\tilde H'^q_2=\tfrac{m}{3M}G^q_A\nonumber\\
&\qquad\qquad +\tfrac{1}{3}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\left[2\left(H^q_T+\tau E^q_T\right)-\tfrac{\tau}{\xi}\tilde E^q_T\right],\\
&\tfrac{1}{\xi}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\,\tilde E'^q_2=-\tfrac{m}{3M}G^q_P+\tfrac{1}{3}\Pi_q\nonumber\\
&\qquad\qquad +\tfrac{1}{3}\int\mathrm{d} x\,x\left[2\left(H^q_T+E^q_T\right)-\tfrac{1}{\xi}\tilde E^q_T\right].
\end{align}
In the massless quark limit, these expressions provide the Wandzura-Wilczek approximation to the second Mellin moment of twist-3 tensor GPDs. Note that they are exact since no three-parton correlators were involved in the derivation, similar to what was observed in the chiral-even sector~\cite{Penttinen:2000dg,Kivel:2000cn}.

Thanks to these results, the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation can now be written in terms of tensor GPDs only
\begin{align}
\tfrac{\sqrt{2}P^+}{M}\,C^q_j&=\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[H^q_T(x,0,0)+\tfrac{3}{2}\bar E^q_T(x,0,0)]\nonumber\\
&+\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[\tilde H'^q_2(x,0,0)+2H'^q_{2\xi}(x,0,0)],
\end{align}
where $H'^q_{2\xi}(x,0,t)\equiv\lim_{\xi\to 0}\tfrac{1}{\xi}H'^q_2(x,\xi,t)$. It is the chiral-odd analogue of the Penttinen-Polyakov-Shuvaev-Strikman relation for the Ji or kinetic OAM~\cite{Kiptily:2002nx,Penttinen:2000dg}
\begin{equation}
L^q_z=-\int\mathrm{d} x\,xG^q_2(x,0,0)
\end{equation}
and of the relation we found in~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa} for the quark longitudinal spin-orbit correlation
\begin{equation}
C^q_z=-\int\mathrm{d} x\,x[\tilde G^q_2(x,0,0)+2\tilde G^q_4(x,0,0)].
\end{equation}
Note that this time both twist-2 and twist-3 GPDs are necessary to express the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation. This may be due to the fact that transversity does not coincide with transverse spin~\cite{Barone:2001sp}.

\section{Discussion}\label{sec4}

\subsection{Burkardt's correlation}

In the former sections, we worked with the asymmetric quark kinetic energy-momentum tensor and performed a decomposition in terms of quark transversity states. The quark transverse spin-orbit correlation $C^q_x=\langle L^q_xT^q_x\rangle$ can therefore alternatively be seen as the transversity asymmetry of the quark OAM, i.e. $\langle\delta^x L^x_q\rangle$ following Burkardt's notation.

This has to be contrasted with the work of Burkardt in~\cite{Burkardt:2005hp,Burkardt:2006ev} which is based on the Belinfante or symmetric quark kinetic energy-momentum tensor~\cite{Belinfante:1939,Belinfante:1940,Rosenfeld:1940}. Since in this case the total angular momentum assumes a purely orbital form, Burkardt interpreted his correlation as the transversity asymmetry of the quark total angular momentum $\langle\delta^x J^x_q\rangle$. It may be tempting to identify it with the correlation between quark transversity and total angular momentum $\langle J^q_xT^q_x\rangle$, just like we identified the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation $C^q _x=\langle L^q_xT^q_x\rangle$ with the transversity asymmetry of the quark OAM $\langle\delta^xL^x_q\rangle$. This is, however, not consistent since $\langle T^{\lambda+\nu}_{q5}\rangle\neq\langle\tfrac{1}{2}\,T^{\lambda\{+\nu\}}_{q5}\rangle$ as one can see from the QCD identity~\eqref{QCDidentity}, whereas we have $\langle T^{+\nu}_{q}\rangle=\langle\tfrac{1}{2}\,T^{\{+\nu\}}_{q}\rangle$ for the unpolarized quark energy-momentum tensor. In other words, symmetrization and transversity decomposition are not compatible, so that we expect in general $\langle\delta^xJ^x_q\rangle\neq \langle\delta^xL^x_q\rangle+\langle\delta^xS^x_q\rangle$.

In the light-front formalism, Burkardt's quark operator is given by
\begin{equation}\label{deltaJop}
\hat{\mathds C}^q_x=\sqrt{2}\int\mathrm{d}^3x\left[x^-\tfrac{1}{2}\hat T^{1\{+2\}}_{q5}-x^2\tfrac{1}{2}\hat T^{1\{+-\}}_{q5}\right]
\end{equation}
which is like our operator $\hat C^q_x$ time-dependent \footnote{We would like to correct a remark in~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}. The quark longitudinal spin-orbit operator $\hat{\mathds C}^q_z$ is actually not time-independent since the operator $\hat T^{\{\mu\nu\}}_{q5}$ is in general not conserved. This has however no practical consequences since we are only interested in matrix elements where the initial and final energies are the same.}.  Symmetrizing the expansion~\eqref{expansion} over the pair of indices $\{\mu\nu\}$, we find
\begin{equation}\label{deltaJLF}
\langle\delta^x\!J^x_q\rangle\equiv\tfrac{\langle P,\uvec s|\hat{\mathds C}^q_x|P,\uvec s\rangle}{\langle P,\uvec s|P,\uvec s\rangle}=-\tfrac{M}{2\sqrt{2}P^+}(B^q_T+2\tilde B^q_T-2 D^q_T).
\end{equation}
Note that the GFF $\tilde D^q_T$ naturally drops out of the final result since it is associated with a Lorentz structure antisymmetric in the pair of indices $[\mu\nu]$.

Actually, Burkardt used the instant-form (IF) formalism, where the quark operator is defined as
\begin{equation}
\hat{\mathds C}^q_{x,IF}=\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,(x^2\tfrac{1}{2}\hat T^{1\{03\}}_{q5}-x^3\tfrac{1}{2}\hat T^{1\{02\}}_{q5}).
\end{equation}
We obtain in this case (once again with $\uvec P_\perp=\uvec 0_\perp$)
\begin{equation}\label{deltaJIF}
\langle\delta^x\!J^x_q\rangle_{IF}=\tfrac{1}{2}\!\left(\tfrac{E-M}{M}\,B^q_T+D^q_T\right)
\end{equation}
which is reminiscent of Leader's result for the transverse Belinfante angular momentum~\cite{Leader:2011cr,Leader:2013jra}
\begin{equation}
\langle J^x_q\rangle_{IF}=\tfrac{1}{2}\left[\tfrac{E-M}{M}\,B^q+(A^q+B^q)\right].
\end{equation}
In the rest frame, we recover Burkardt's result
\begin{equation}\label{Burkres}
\langle\delta^x\!J^x_q\rangle_{IF,\text{rest}}=\tfrac{1}{2}D^q_T=\tfrac{1}{2}(A_{T20}+2\tilde A_{T20}+B_{T20}),
\end{equation}
where we have used Eqs.~\eqref{BTq} and~\eqref{DTq}.

At first sight, it may seem odd that the light-front and instant-form results~\eqref{deltaJLF} and~\eqref{deltaJIF} have different high-energy limits. This is because the transverse OAM light-front operator involves the $a^-$ component, whereas the instant-form operator involves $a^3=\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(a^+-a^-)$. Therefore, in the high-energy limit $E\gg M$, the light-front result behaves as $\mathcal O(E^{-1})$ whereas the instant-form result behaves as $O(E)$. In other words, the instant-form operator contains contributions which are of higher-twist compared to the corresponding light-front operator.

Beside the instant-form approach, Burkardt proposed in~\cite{Burkardt:2005hp} a heuristic derivation of Eq.~\eqref{Burkres} based on the light-front operator $\hat T^{j++}_{q5}$, allowing for an intuitive partonic interpretation in impact-parameter space. Considering the matrix element of the operator $\sqrt{2}\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,x^2\hat T^{1++}_{q5}$, one obtains $\tfrac{P^+}{\sqrt{2}M}\,B^q_T$ which coincides, as expected, with the instant form result~\eqref{deltaJIF} in the infinite-momentum frame. Working in the rest frame to invoke rotational symmetry, Burkardt added an extra term $\tfrac{1}{2}\int\mathrm{d} x\,xH^q_T(x,0,0)=\tfrac{1}{2}(D^q_T-B^q_T)$ to account for an overall transverse displacement of the center of light-front momentum with respect to the origin, a relativistic effect associated with rotating bodies. Although quite appealing, this interpretation is however not satisfactory since, as stressed in~\cite{Leader:2012md,Harindranath:2012wn,Liu:2015xha}, the term $\int\mathrm{d}^3x\,x^j\hat T^{++}_q$ is part of the transverse light-front boost operator and not the transverse light-front rotation operator.

\subsection{Estimates from lattice calculations}

In order to determine the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation $C^q_x$, we need to know four quantities given in Eq.~\eqref{Cqj}. In practice, we can neglect the contribution of the axial FF since it appears multiplied by the mass ratio $m/3M\approx 10^{-3}$ for $u$ and $d$ quarks.

So far, the second Mellin moment of quark transversity GPDs have not yet been extracted from experimental data. We will therefore rely on lattice QCD calculations. In table~\ref{Modelresults} we summarize the results obtained by the QCDSF/UKQCD Collaboration~\cite{Gockeler:2005cj,Gockeler:2006zu} for the lowest two Mellin moments of the tensor GPDs $H^q_T$ and $E^q_T$. They are in very good agreement with a more recent calculation by Abdel-Rehim \emph{et al.}~\cite{Abdel-Rehim:2015owa} which also provides us with an estimate of the quark scalar charges. These values are compared with the predictions of two relativistic quark models, namely the light-front constituent quark model (LFCQM) and the light-front chiral quark-soliton model (LF$\chi$QSM)~\cite{Lorce:2011kd,Pasquini:2007xz,Lorce:2011dv,Lorce:2007fa}. Note that the second Mellin moments are new results we obtained within these models. Even though the lattice and quark model results correspond to two different scales, namely $\mu^2=4$ GeV$^2$ and $\mu^2\sim 0.26$ GeV$^2$, we observe that they are in qualitative agreement.

Using the lattice results from table~\ref{Modelresults} in Eq.~\eqref{Cqj}, we get
\begin{equation}
C^u_x\approx -3.6,\qquad C^d_x\approx -2.2.
\end{equation}
These numbers can be compared with the values for the longitudinal spin-orbit correlation $C^u_z\approx -0.9$ and $C^d_z\approx -0.53$ we obtained in~\cite{Lorce:2014mxa}. In both cases we found negative spin-orbit correlations, meaning that the quark polarization and kinetic OAM are, in average, anti-correlated. In the rest frame, one can expect from spherical symmetry that longitudinal and transverse spin-orbit correlations should be equal. This does not contradict our results because we considered the correlation of quark OAM with transversity and not with transverse spin. Note that the large numbers we obtained for the transverse spin-orbit correlation are mainly driven by the scalar charges, just like the longitudinal spin-orbit correlation is mainly driven by the vector charges.

The numbers in table~\ref{Modelresults} can also be used to estimate Burkardt's correlation. In this case, we obtain from Eq.~\eqref{Burkres}
\begin{align}
\langle\delta^xJ^x_u\rangle_\text{latt.}&=0.344,&\langle\delta^xJ^x_d\rangle_\text{latt.}&=0.104,\\
\langle\delta^xJ^x_u\rangle_\text{LFCQM}&=0.737,& \langle\delta^xJ^x_d\rangle_\text{LFCQM}&=0.319,\\
\langle\delta^xJ^x_u\rangle_\text{LF$\chi$QSM}&=0.745,& \langle\delta^xJ^x_d\rangle_\text{LF$\chi$QSM}&=0.321,
\intertext{which can be compared to the values obtained in~\cite{Pasquini:2005dk}}
\langle\delta^xJ^x_u\rangle_\text{HYP}&=0.39,& \langle\delta^xJ^x_d\rangle_\text{HYP}&=0.10,\\
\langle\delta^xJ^x_u\rangle_\text{HO}&=0.68,& \langle\delta^xJ^x_d\rangle_\text{HO}&=0.28,
\end{align}
for the hypercentral (HYP) and harmonic oscillator (HO) models.

\section{Conclusions}\label{sec5}

We introduced and discussed the quark transverse-spin orbit correlation, which is a new piece of information characterizing the nucleon spin structure. We showed that this correlation can be expressed in terms of tensor generalized parton distributions, scalar charges and axial-vector charges. Using results from lattice QCD calculations, we concluded that the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation is very likely negative, just like its longitudinal counterpart. In other words, it is expected that the quark kinetic orbital angular momentum is in average opposite to the quark spin.

In the process, we compared our quark transverse-spin orbit correlation with Burkardt's transverse correlation, and obtained several other interesting results. We derived a new sum rule relating twist-2 and twist-3 transversity generalized parton distributions, and also obtained the Wandzura expression for the second Mellin moment of twist-3 transversity generalized parton distributions, which is exact in the chiral limit like in the chiral-even sector. Finally, comparing Ji's expression for quark kinetic orbital angular momentum to our expression for the quark transverse spin-orbit correlation, we suggested that the scalar charge could be interpreted as a measure of the correlation between quark transversity and transverse spin.

Smile Train Announces Patent-Pending Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Simulator
FORT WORTH, TEXAS – March 30, 2022 – Simulare Medical, a Division of Smile Train, Inc., has launched the newest innovation in its growing line of high-fidelity cleft surgical simulators, the first and only Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Simulator (patent-pending). To celebrate the launch, training workshops are being held today at the 79th Annual Meeting of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association (ACPA) in Fort Worth, Texas and in Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao in the Philippines in partnership with the Philippines Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (PAPRAS).
Developed by leading plastic surgeons to help accelerate the learning curve in cleft lip and palate reconstructive surgical training, the Simulare Medical Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Simulator is an anatomically accurate, lifelike, and invaluable training tool that will reduce patient risk, decrease training costs, and elevate the skills and confidence of surgeons globally.
Smile Train is the world's largest cleft-focused organization. For more than 20 years, Smile Train has supported safe and quality cleft care for 1.5 million+ children globally.
"This latest innovation advances our vision of providing care for every cleft-affected person and demonstrates our commitment to leveraging technology to further education and change lives," said Susannah Schaefer, President and Chief Executive Officer at Smile Train. "We're deeply invested in continuing to evolve training that creates more sustainable health systems. We look forward to seeing this Simulator have a positive impact on cleft surgeons at the beginning of their career and longtime professionals looking to refine their skills as well as on our beneficiaries — regardless of the type of cleft they have."
Though children around the world suffer from both unilateral and bilateral clefts, traditional cleft lip/palate simulators have only addressed unilateral clefts. This Simulator goes beyond that, introducing a tool that can address bilateral clefts (i.e., involving both sides of the mouth). This additional functionality opens the doors for surgeons and trainees to be able to treat more children with refined techniques.
Built with 3D technology, the Simulator uses printed materials to resemble the anatomy and different kinds of tissue, such as skin, muscle, and fat, found inside the mouth to create one of the most realistic models available today. In addition to the advanced technology, the musculature and soft-tissue layers were developed from literature descriptions and consultations with expert cleft surgeons. When local surgeons have access to the most advanced tools, it builds their capacity to provide the best care possible and empowers them to perform surgery safely no matter where they are in the world.
"Surgeons in low- and middle-income countries often face significant barriers to ongoing training. This simulator is more than just a revolution in training technology," said Dr. Roberto L. Flores, the Joseph G. McCarthy Associate Professor of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, Director of Cleft Lip and Palate at NYU Langone Health, and Member of Smile Train's Global Medical Advisory Board. "It's a way to advance equity, ensuring that a talented surgeon in Malawi has the same training opportunities as a surgeon in Dallas, and that babies born with a unilateral or bilateral cleft lip/palate have access to the same standard of care no matter where they live."
With Simulare Medical handmaking its Simulators at its facilities in Canada, the division can ensure that each product is high-quality and will have an even greater impact on the patients who benefit from it. In international studies and training workshops, Simulare Medical surgical simulators are consistently recognized as a high-impact, hands-on, and low-cost way to develop and enhance surgical skills with no risk to patients.

Agriculture plays a crucial part in the Indian economy. Having said this, a future where cellular agriculture becomes a principal supply of protein isn't far away. In the developing world, it remains one of the core pillars of economic development. Animal agriculture is increasing international warming. So, there are various ways that we see the farming have an effect in the wine. Vertical farming where it's possible is 1 example.
Understandably, farmers are not pleased with the stricter regulations. Livestock farms which deal in the raising of chicken are called poultry farms.
Since plenty of livestock eat grass grazing them on pasture has plenty of benefits. By being part of the worldwide food system, livestock boost the sustainability of other food creation and industries. Naturally, when you purchase livestock weigh scales, you want to take into account the sort of animals you'd be weighing. Identifying livestock is an integral component of raising animals whether for a pastime or as an element of a massive farm operation.
Reducing our consumption of animal products is simple to do, and there are several books and recipes both online, and in your community bookstore or library, that is able to help you make the transition to a much healthier diet. Concentrate on development and you'll understand that agricultural growth is a significant step toward economic development and transformation. The Australian livestock business has an important function to play in managing the natural resources in Australia and the business is focused on minimising the effect on natural resources at precisely the same time as reducing methane gas. To tell the truth, agriculture investment can grow to be a little expensive as it covers numerous resources.
When you're working with cattle, there are a couple of days you get ran over Wallstrum stated. For those who have cattle, you should provide them proper feed on regular basis. Raising cattle may also be very profitable given the perfect breed.

The University of Colorado School of Medicine has received a $2 million donation intended for research in the medical school's eye care program.
The gift comes from Sue Anschutz-Rodgers and will establish an endowed chair in retinal diseases. The post will be held first by Dr. Naresh Mandava, who is chair of the ophthalmology department as well as the director of the CU Eye Center.
An endowed chair gift provides a perpetual stream of funding and helps universities recruit and retain top talent, CU said.
Mandava researches age-related macular degeneration, a leading cause of vision loss in people older than 60. There are therapies, but no cure. His research has focused on technologies in imaging, drug therapy and artificial vision. Mandava's research group has pioneered the concept of stimulating the retina with photovoltaic nanoparticles, which have the potential to restore sight in blind people, CU said.
The Colorado Eye Center is the only academic eye center within a 500-mile radius of the Anschutz Medical Campus.
