Wigner distributions and GTMDs in a proton using light-front quark-diquark model
Abstract: We investigate the Wigner distributions and generalized transverse momentum-dependent distributions (GTMDs) for $u$ and $d$ quarks in the proton by using light-front quark-diquark model. We consider the contribution of scalar and axial-vector diquark having spin-0 and spin-1 respectively. We take different polarization configurations of quark and proton to calculate the Wigner distributions. The Wigner distributions are studied in the impact-parameter space, momentum space and mixed space for $u$ and $d$ quarks in the proton. We also study the relation of GTMDs with longitudinal momentum fraction carried by the active quark $x$ for different values of $\zeta$ (skewness) which is defined as the longitudinal momentum transferred to the proton. Further, we study the GTMDs in the relation with $x$ for zero skewness $(\zeta=0)$ at different values of quark transverse momentum $\textbf{p}\perp$ as well as at different values of total momentum transferred to the proton ${\bf \Delta}\perp$.
