Exclusive diffractive electroproduction of dijets in collinear factorization
نویسنده
چکیده
Exclusive electroproduction of hard dijets can be described within the collinear factorization. This process has clear experimental signature and provides one with an interesting alternative venue to test QCD description of hard diffractive processes and extract information on generalized nucleon parton distributions. In this work we present detailed leading-order QCD calculations of the relevant cross sections, including longitudinal momentum fraction distribution of the dijets and their azimuthal angle dependence.

Exclusive production of dijets in QCD
We study in a framework of QCD collinear factorization the processes of a pion and a photon diffraction dissociation into two jets. The structure of non-factorizable contributions is discussed. We argue that coherent production of hard dijets by linearly polarized real photons can provide direct evidence for chirality violation in hard processes, the first measurement of the magnetic susceptibi...
متن کاملInclusive Diffraction ∗
Results are given on the measurements of the hard diffractive interactions at HERA ep collider. The structure of the diffractive exchange in terms of partons and the factorisation properties are discussed, in particular by comparing the QCD predictions for dijets and D * with measurements both in the photo and electroproduction regimes.
متن کاملA fresh look at exclusive electroproduction of light vector mesons
Relying on the collinear factorization approach, we demonstrate that H1 and ZEUS measurements of exclusive light vector meson and photon electroproduction cross sections can be simultaneously described for photon virtualities ofQ 2GeV. Our findings reveal that quark exchanges are important in this small xBj region and that in leading order approximation the gluonic component is suppressed, e.g....
متن کاملFactorization for hard exclusive electroproduction of mesons in QCD
We formulate and prove a QCD factorization theorem for hard exclusive electroproduction of mesons in QCD. The proof is valid for the leading power in Q and all logarithms. This generalizes previous work on vector meson production in the diffractive region of small x. The amplitude is expressed in terms of off-diagonal generalizations of the usual parton densities. The full theorem applies to al...
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 ′...
