Transversity GPD in photo- and electroproduction of two vector mesons
The chiral-odd generalized parton distribution (GPD), or transversity GPD, of the nucleon can be accessed experimentally through the photoor electroproduction of two vector mesons on a polarized nucleon target, γN → ρ1ρ2N , where ρ1 is produced at large transverse momentum, ρ2 is transversely polarized, and the mesons are separated by a large rapidity gap. We predict the cross section for this ...
متن کاملAccessing Generalized Transversity Distributions with Exclusive π Electroproduction
Exclusive π electroproduction from nucleons at large Q can be described by Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), particularly the chiral odd subset related to transversity. These GPDs can be accessed experimentally from various cross sections and asymmetries. We calculate these GPDs in a spectator model, constrained by boundary functions. Alternatively, in a hadronic picture the meson produc...

Electroproduction of two vector mesons with a large rapidity gap between them provides the first feasible selective access to chiral-odd GPDs [1]. The scattering amplitude of the process γ * N → ρ 0 L ρ + T N ′ may be represented as a convolution of an impact factor describing the γ * → ρ 0 L transition and an amplitude describing the N → ρ + T N ′ transition, analogously to deeply exclusive el...
متن کاملTransversity via Exclusive Π–electroproduction
Exclusive π 0 electroproduction from nucleons can be related to transversity, the tensor charge, and other quantities related to transversity. This process isolates C-parity odd and chiral odd combinations of t-channel exchange quantum numbers. In a hadronic picture the meson production amplitudes for intermediate energy and Q 2 are determined by C–odd Regge exchanges with final state interacti...
متن کاملExclusive Meson Electroproduction: GPDs, Regge and Dispersion Relations
Exclusive pi0 electroproduction from nucleons at large photon virtuality can be described in terms of Generalized Parton Distributions, particularly the chiral odd subset. Chiral odd GPDs are related to transversity and can be accessed experimentally for various special choices of observables. This is accomplished by choosing C-parity odd and chiral odd combinations of t-channel exchange quantu...
