Deeply virtual vector meson electroproduction at small Bjorken-x
نویسنده
چکیده
It is reported on an analysis of vector meson electroproduction at small Bjorken-x (xBj) within the handbag approach. Using a model for the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) and calculating the partonic subprocess, electroproduction off gluons, within the modified perturbative approach, cross sections and spin density matrix elements (SDME) are evaluated. The numerical results of this analysis agree fairly well with recent HERA data. Contribution to DIS05, Madison (USA)

Electroproduction of longitudinally polarized vector mesons
It is reported on an analysis of electroproduction of light vector mesons at small Bjorken-x (xBj) within the handbag approach. The partonic subprocesses, meson electroproduction off quarks or gluons, are calculated within the modified perturbative approach (m.p.a.) in which quark transverse momenta are retained. The soft hadronic matrix elements, generalized parton distributions (GPDs), are co...
متن کاملProbing chiral-odd GPD’s in diffractive electroproduction of two vector mesons
We consider the electroproduction of two vector mesons with a large rapidity gap between them on a nucleon target in the process γN → ρ1ρ2N . We calculate the Born term for this process within the collinear factorization framework. The resulting scattering amplitude may be represented as a convolution of an impact factor describing the γ → ρ1 transition and an amplitude describing the N → ρ2N ′...
متن کاملPolarisation in Deeply Virtual Meson Production
We discuss two aspects of polarisation in hard exclusive meson production: the leading-twist selection rule for the meson helicity, and the different partial waves of a ππ-pair which may or may not be due to the decay of a ρ. 1 Helicity in vector meson production The first half of this talk is about exclusive electroproduction of a ρ (or any other light vector meson), ep → ep + ρ, in the Bjorke...
متن کاملDeeply virtual electroproduction of photons and mesons on the nucleon
We give predictions for the leading order amplitudes for deeply virtual Compton scattering and hard meson electroproduction reactions at large Q in the valence region in terms of skewed quark distributions. We give first estimates for the power corrections to these leading order amplitudes. In particular, we outline examples of experimental opportunities to access the skewed parton distribution...
متن کاملElectroproduction of vector mesons - factorization of end-point contributions
The end-point contributions in the quark longitudinal momentum fraction of the virtual photon (γ) to vector meson (V ) impact factor to the diffractive electroproduction amplitude can be factorized in terms of a generalized parton evolution of the target parton distribution. The result is used to model the helicity amplitudes γp → V p in terms of small x generalized parton distributions. e-mail...
