Azimuthal asymmetries in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on an unpolarized proton target
نویسنده
چکیده
Preliminary results on azimuthal asymmetries in leptoproduction of real photons on an unpolarized hydrogen target measured at the HERMES experiment are presented [1]. The analysis of data taken with different beam charges and helicities allows for a simultaneous extraction of asymmetries originating from the interference term and the squared DVCS amplitude. Sizeable asymmetry amplitudes for the first cosine moment of the beam-charge asymmetry and the first sine moment of the beam-spin asymmetry have been found. The results are compared to different theoretical calculations.

Twist-three Observables in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on the Nucleon
We study twist-three effects in deeply virtual Compton scattering on an unpolarized spin-1/2 target. A careful definition of observables as Fourier moments w.r.t. the azimuthal angle allows for a clear separation of twist-two and-three effects. Although the latter are power suppressed, they give leading contributions to the twist-three asymmetries and do not affect the twist-two observables.

متن کاملMeasurement of azimuthal asymmetries associated with deeply virtual Compton scattering on a longitudinally polarized deuterium target
Azimuthal asymmetries in exclusive electroproduction of a real photon from a longitudinally polarized deuterium target are measured with respect to target polarization alone and with respect to target polarization combined with beam helicity and/or beam charge. The asymmetries appear in the distribution of the real photons in the azimuthal angle φ around the virtual photon direction, relative t...
متن کاملAzimuthal asymmetries at CLAS: Extraction of e(x) and prediction of AUL
First information on the chirally odd twist-3 proton distribution function e(x) is extracted from the azimuthal asymmetry, ALU , in the electro-production of pions from deeply inelastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons off unpolarized protons, which has been recently measured by CLAS collaboration. Furthermore parameter-free predictions are made for azimuthal asymmetries, AUL, f...
متن کاملDeeply virtual Compton scattering off nuclei
We consider the hard leptoproduction of a photon off nuclei up to spin-1. As a new result we present here the general azimuthal angular dependence of the differential cross section for a spin-1 target. Its twist-two Fourier coefficients of the interference and squared deeply virtual Compton scattering amplitude are evaluated in leading order approximation of perturbation theory in terms of gene...
