In high energy particle physics, specifically in hadron-beam scattering experiments, transverse momentum distributions (TMDs) are the distributions of the hadron's quark or gluon momenta that are perpendicular to the momentum transfer between the beam and the hadron. Specifically, they are probability distributions to find inside the hadron a parton with a transverse momentum and longitudinal momentum fraction . TMDs provide information on the confined motion of quarks and gluons inside the hadron and complement the information on the hadron structure provided by parton distribution functions (PDFs) and generalized parton distributions (GPDs).In all, TMDs and PDFs provide the information of the momentum distribution (transverse and longitudinal, respectively) of the quarks (or gluons), an
