Description
In this talk, we present recent results from lattice QCD on the transverse
spin structure of hadrons. Strong correlations between spin, orbital
angular momentum and coordinate degrees of freedom lead to strongly
distorted densities of quarks in hadrons in particular for transverse
quark polarizations. We discuss possible implications of our results for
the Sivers and Boer-Mulders function of the nucleon and show first results
on the spin structure of the pion.
