The unpolarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) differential cross sections in ${}_{3}{He} (e, e^{'} π^{\pm}) X$ have been measured for the first time in Jefferson Lab experiment E06-010 with a $5.9 GeV e^{-}$ beam on a ${}_{3}{He}$ gas target. The experiment focuses on the valence quark region, covering a kinematic range $0.12 < x_{b j} < 0.45, 1 < Q^{2} < 4 {(GeV / c)}^{2}, 0.45 < z_{h} < 0.65$ , and $0.05 < P_{t} < 0.55 GeV / c$ . The extracted SIDIS differential cross sections of $π^{\pm}$ production are compared with existing phenomenological models while the ${}_{3}{He}$ nucleus approximated as two protons and one neutron in a plane-wave picture, in multidimensional bins. Within the experimental uncertainties, the azimuthal modulations of the cross sections are found to be consistent with zero.
