dc.description.abstractWe report the first measurement of the double-spin asymmetry A[subscript LT] for charged pion electroproduction in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic electron scattering on a transversely polarized [superscript 3]He target. The kinematics focused on the valence quark region, 0.16<x<0.35 with 1.4<Q[superscript 2]<2.7  GeV[superscript 2]. The corresponding neutron A[subscript LT] asymmetries were extracted from the measured [superscript 3]He asymmetries and proton over [superscript 3]He cross section ratios using the effective polarization approximation. These new data probe the transverse momentum dependent parton distribution function g[subscript 1T][superscript q] and therefore provide access to quark spin-orbit correlations. Our results indicate a positive azimuthal asymmetry for π[superscript -] production on [superscript 3]He and the neutron, while our π[superscript +] asymmetries are consistent with zero.en_US
