- <p class = "a"> My PhD research under <a href="https://phys.nmsu.edu/facultydirectory/engelhardt_michael.html" target="_blank">Dr. Michael Engelhardt</a> (NMSU) focuses on lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations of Transverse Momentum Dependent Parton Distribution Functions (TMDs) such as generalized Sivers shift, which represents the average transverse momentum of unpolarized quarks orthogonal to the transverse spin of the proton. Specifically, we are analyzing the dependence of Sivers TMDs on the longitudinal momentum fraction of the quark by placing the Wilson gauge link in various off-axis directions on the lattice. Our analysis also incorporates symbolic regression (machine learning) methods to extract analytical functions from lattice data.<p>
