Charge and Spin Asymmetries from Pomeron-Odderon Interference
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study Pomeron-Odderon interference effects giving rise to charge and single-spin asymmetries in diffractive electroproduction of a π + π − pair. We calculate these asymmetries in the Born approximation of QCD in a kine-matical domain accessible to HERA experiments.

We review the results of our studies on the charge and the spin asymmetries in the electroproduction of π + π − which are the observables sensitive to the Pomeron-Odderon interference.
متن کاملPomeron-Odderon interference effects in electroproduction of two pions
We study Pomeron-Odderon interference effects giving rise to charge and single-spin asymmetries in diffractive electroproduction of a π π pair. We calculate these asymmetries originating from both longitudinal and transverse polarizations of the virtual photon, in the framework of QCD and in the Born approximation, in a kinematical domain accessible to HERA experiments. We predict a sizable cha...
متن کاملPomeron-Odderon interference in production of π+π− pairs in ultraperipheral collisions
At high energies amplitudes of hadronic reactions with rapidity gaps are dominated by the exchange of a color singlet, C-even state – called the Pomeron. In the language of perturbative QCD the Pomeron can be described at lowest order as the exchange of two gluons in the color singlet state. In contrast to the very well settled notion of the Pomeron, the status of its C-odd partner – the Oddero...
متن کاملodderon discovery via observation of charge asymmetry in the diffractive π + π − production at HERA
The interference between the Pomeron and possible odderon mechanisms of diffractive π+π− photoproduction results in charge asymmetry of the produced pions. Without referring to any particular model of the odderon, we establish how the kind of charge asymmetry depends on the helicity structure of Pomeron and odderon mediated production of dipions. Focusing on region Mπ+π− = 1.1 ÷ 1.5 GeV, where ...
متن کاملHow to measure Pomeron phase and discover odderon at HERA and RHIC
We suggest to measure Pomeron phase and discover odderon via the measurement of charge asymmetry of pions in the diffractive processes ep→ eππp, eA→ eππA and in the processes AA→ AAππ with two rapidity gaps. To measure the Pomeron (IP) phase in γp, γA reactions and to discover the odderon (O) we suggest to study charge asymmetry of pions with small transverse momentum k⊥ = (p+ + p−)⊥ of a dipio...
