Description
The Sivers effect describes the correlation between the spin of the nucleon and the orbital motion of partons. For gluons it has been measured at COMPASS via $J/\Psi$ production and via high-$p_T$ hadron pair production in Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering of a 160 GeV/$c$ muon beam off transversely polarised proton and deuteron targets by determining the amplitude of the modulation of the Sivers angle $\phi^{Siv}$ distribution. Both the approach using $J/\Psi$ channel and high-$p_T$ hadron pair selection will be described in detail and the results given.
