Polarized Drell-Yan studies at COMPASS

The COMPASS experiment at CERN will soon start a new series of measurements using a pion beam and a transversely polarized target. The study of the polarized Drell-Yan process will provide an insight of the transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs), which is complementary t...
