SummaryAccounting for the intrinsic quark transverse motion in the unpolarized cross-section gives origin to an azimuthal asymmetry in the hadron production direction;In particular it was stressed the existence of the

Cahn effect: an (higher twist) azimuthal modulation related to the existence of quark intrinsic motion;Boer-Mulders effect: a leading twist asymmetry originated by the correlation between the quark transverse motion and spin (a kind of spin-orbit effect).

Monte Carlo studies show that: A fully differential analysis together with an unfolding procedure is able to disentangle the ‘physical’ azimuthal asymmetry from the acceptance and radiative modulations of the cross-section.






Flavour dependent experimental results: Negative <cos> moments are extracted for positive and

negative hadrons, with a larger absolute value for the positive ones

The results for the <cos2> moments are negative for the positive hadrons and positive for the negative hadrons

- Evidence of a non-zero Boer-Mulders function
