Description
We combine the tools of global event shapes and jet electric charge into a unified factorization framework to probe quark flavor dynamics in the nucleon and the hadronization process. As a concrete example, we study jet charge measurements with the 1-Jettiness global event shape for Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) as a quark flavor probe of unpolarized or polarized parton distribution functions (PDFs) and final state hadronization. We present simulation studies to demonstrate the sensitivity of the 1-Jettiness jet charge observable to quark flavor dynamics. This observable is well-suited for existing HERA data and the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC).
