Results and perspective on TMDs and GPDs at COMPASS

COMPASS is a fixed target experiment at the CERN SPS dedicated to the study of the nucleon structure in the framework of the most complete descriptions based on transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) and generalised parton distributions (GPDs). TMDs have been accessed so...
