[Sane-analysis] Target Mass Effects

Hi Everyone,

After much debugging, I think I understand the TMCs a little better.

First, when Y.B.Dong writes (http://inspirehep.net/record/776969):

"If the spin structure functions are replaced by the target mass 
corrected ones, according to eq 6 and 8, one can easily expand the two 
Nachtmann momentus up to order M^6/Q^6. The results are:
M_1^n = a_n   and M_2^n = d_n."

The "corrected ones" means including the target mass effects, not 
removing it. In fact it *must* include the target mass effects otherwise 
the result is wrong (as I have confirmed from calculation).

Furthermore if the d2 CN moment is to be calculated from the Nachtmann 
moments via Dong's Eq.10, that is up to and including y^6 terms, then at 
Q2=2 GeV^2, the error is about 25% while at Q2=1 GeV^2 it becomes nearly 
100%.

I have attached the output of various calculations starting from very 
high Q2 going down to 1 GeV^2. At high Q2 there is little difference as 
expected. I used the JAM15 (https://github.com/JeffersonLab/JAMLIB) pdfs 
and twist-3 distributions.

The quantities are:

    d2_CN        = x^2(2g_1+3g_2) with M=0
                 = (twist-2 part) + (twist-3 part)
    d2_CN_TMC    = x^2(2g_1+3g_2) with M=M_p
                 = (twist-2 part) + (twist-3 part)
   2*d2_D_p_t3   = third moment of twist-3 distribution D_p
   d2_t3         = 3x^2 g_2^{twist-3} with M=0
   d2_t3_TMC     = 3x^2 g_2^{twist-3} with M=Mp 
   d2    (g2-WW) = 3x^2 [ (2g_1+3g_2) -g_2^{WW} ] with M=0
   d2_TMC(g2-WW) = 3x^2 [ (2g_1+3g_2) -g_2^{WW} ] with M=Mp
   2*M23_p       = 2 times Nachtmann Moment (Y.B.Dong Eq.13 with M=0)
   2*M23_TMC_p   = 2 times Nachtmann Moment (Y.B.Dong Eq.13 with M=Mp)
   d3_nacht      = Nachtmann Moment (Y.B.Dong Eq.13 with M=0)
   d3_nacht_TMC  = Nachtmann Moment (Y.B.Dong Eq.13 with M=Mp)
   d2p_I(no TMC) = d2_CN
   d2p_I(w/ TMC) = d2_CN_TMC
   I_Nacht       = Y.B.Dong Eq. 10 with M=0
                 = 2.0*(M_2^3 + 6 M_2^5 y^2 + 12 M_2^7 y^4 + 20 M_2^9 y^6 ) with M=0
   I_Nacht_TMC   = Y.B.Dong Eq. 10 with M=Mp
                 = 2.0*(M_2^3 + 6 M_2^5 y^2 + 12 M_2^7 y^4 + 20 M_2^9 y^6 ) with M=Mp

Note that I_Nacht_TMC = d2_CN_TMC for most Q2 except below about 2. It 
also worth noting that the JAM15 Q2=3 GeV^2 result for 
I_Nacht_TMC/M23_TMC_p also shows a sudden decrease relative to the 
increasing trend as Q3 goes from high to low.

To conclude, I think if we want to use world data on A_1/g_1 then we 
have to always include the target mass effects when using various pdf 
models.

Cheers,
Whit
