Harmonics of Lepton-Jet Correlations in inclusive and diffractive scatterings

Abstract

Based on our previous work, we study the harmonic coefficient of both inclusive and diffractive azimuthal angle dependent lepton-jet correlations in Hadron-Electron Ring Accelerator and the future electron-ion collider. Numerical calculations for inclusive and diffractive harmonics and the ratio of harmonics in $e+\text{Au}$~and $e+p$ indicate their strong discriminating power for non-saturation model and saturation model. Additionally, we demonstrate that the t-dependent diffractive harmonics can serve as novel observables for nuclear density profile.
