Abstract

The study of Drell-Yan (DY) processes involving the collision of an unpolarised hadron beam on a polarised proton target can result in a fundamental improvement of our knowledge on the transverse-momentum–dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs) of hadron. A fundamental test of the factorization theorem in the non-perturbative QCD can be performed as well, by verifying the sign change of T-odd TMDs as they are accessed via Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) or Drell-Yan process. The future polarised COMPASS Drell-Yan experiment is discussed in this context, the most important features are briefly reviewed, the sensitivity of the measurement is presented.
