Outline
• Angular momentum and Relativity • Longitudinal and transverse polarizations• Transversity and orbital angular momentum
![Page 3: Cédric Lorcé SLAC & IFPA Liège Transversity and orbital angular momentum January 23, 2015, JLab, Newport News, USA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d6f5503460f94a51243/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Back to basics
Two crucial commutators
RelativisticNon-relativistic
Spin orientation andrelativistic center-of-
mass are frame dependent
Wigner rotation
Special relativity introduces intricate spin-orbit coupling !

Back to basics
Single particle at rest
Total angular
Spin is well-defined and unique
Only upper component matters

Back to basics
Single particle in motion
Total angular
« Spin » is ambiguous and not unique
p-waves are involved
Even for a plane-wave !

Spin vs. Polarization
I will always refer to « spin » as Dirac spin
Dirac states are eigenstates of momentum and polarization operators
but not of spin operator
Pauli-Lubanski four-vector
Polarization four-vector

Spin vs. Polarization
Polarization along z
Total angular momentum is conserved
![Page 8: Cédric Lorcé SLAC & IFPA Liège Transversity and orbital angular momentum January 23, 2015, JLab, Newport News, USA](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d6f5503460f94a51243/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Spin vs. Polarization
Standard Lorentz transformation defines polarization basis in any frame
Conventional !
Generic Lorentz transformation generates a Wigner rotation of polarization
Changing standard Lorentz transformation results in a Melosh rotation
[Polyzou et al. (2012)]

Popular polarization choices
« Canonical spin »
Advantage : rotations are simple
[Polyzou et al. (2012)]
is a rotationless pure boost
« Light-front helicity » is made of LF boosts
Advantage : LF boosts are simple
Polarization four-vector
Polarization four-vector

Longitudinal vs. Transverse
Longitudinal polarization Helicity !
Reminder
Aka longitudinal spin
Transverse polarization
Transversity !

Helicity vs. Transversity
Chiral odd
Helicity Transversity
Charge odd
Chiral even
Charge even

Summary
• Distinction between « spin » and « polarization » is important
• Helicity and transversity contain complementary information about boosts
• Transversity appears in several sum rules but has no model-independent relation with OAM
