Yuan The first and 1/2-transverse moments of the Sivers quark distribution functions, defined in Eqs. (3, 9), as extracted in Refs. [20, 21, 23]. The fits were constrained mainly (or solely) by the preliminary HERMES data in the indicated x-range. The curves indicate the 1-σ regions of the various parameterizations.
