A Short Review on Recent Developments in TMD Factorization and Implementation

الملخص EN

In the latest years the theoretical and phenomenological advances in the factorization of several collider processes using the transverse momentum dependent distributions (TMD) have greatly increased.

I attempt here a short resume of the newest developments discussing also the most recent perturbative QCD calculations.

The work is not strictly directed to experts in the field and it wants to offer an overview of the tools and concepts which are behind the TMD factorization and evolution.

I consider both theoretical and phenomenological aspects, some of which have still to be fully explored.

It is expected that actual colliders and the Electron Ion Collider (EIC) will provide important information in this respect.
