QCD Evolution of Nuclear Quark-Gluon Correlation Function

We summarize the results on the next-to-leading order (NLO) calculations of transverse momentum broadening in semi-inclusive deeply inelastic e + A scattering (SIDIS) and Drell-Yan dilepton production (DY) in p + A collisions. The corresponding transverse momentum weighted differential cross sections are shown to factorize at NLO. Our calculations identify the QCD evolution equation for the quark-gluon correlation function, and also confirm the universality of the associated quark-gluon correlation function in SIDIS and DY. The evolution equation can be further applied to determine the QCD factorization scale and the energy dependence of the jet transport parameter $\hat{q}$.
