Abstract
We present a model calculation of T-odd transverse-momentum-dependent distributions of gluons in the nucleon. The model is based on the assumption that a nucleon can emit a gluon, and what remains after the emission is treated as a single spectator particle. This spectator particle is considered to be on-shell, but its mass is allowed to take a continuous range of values, described by a spectral function. The final-state interaction that is necessary to generate T-odd functions is modeled as the exchange of a single gluon between the spectator and the outgoing parton.
