Title: Neutrino-tagged jets at the Electron-Ion Collider

Abstract

We explore the potential of jet observables in charged-current deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) events at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Tagging jets with a recoiling neutrino, which can be identified with the event's missing transverse energy, will allow for flavor-sensitive measurements of transverse-momentum dependent parton density functions. We present the first predictions for transverse-spin asymmetries in azimuthal neutrino-jet correlations which probe the Sivers effect. We project the kinematic reach and the precision of these measurements and study their feasibility using parametrized detector simulations. We conclude that jet production in charged-current DIS, while challenging in terms of luminosity requirements, can complement the EIC 3D imaging program.
