Soft Pion Emission in DVCS
نویسنده
چکیده
We examine soft-pion emission in deeply virtual Compton scattering. Contrary to previous claims, we find that the amplitude for soft-pion emission is not directly related to the generalized parton distributions in the nucleon.

Comment on soft-pion emission in DVCS
The soft-pion theorem for pion production in deeply virtual Compton scattering, derived by Guichon, Mossé and Vanderhaegen, is shown to be consistent with chiral perturbation theory. Chiral symmetry requires that the nonsinglet operators corresponding to spin-independent and spindependent parton distributions have the same anomalous dimensions in cases where those operators are related by chira...
متن کاملSoft Pion Emission from the Nucleon Induced by Twist-2 Light-Cone Operators
We compute the matrix elements for pion emission from the nucleon induced by twist-two light-cone operators in the kinematics where the pion is close to threshold. It is shown that the results of heavy baryon ChPT are in agreement with the results from the soft-pion theorem approach. Therefore the amplitude of soft-pion emission is directly related to the generalized parton distributions in the...
متن کاملOn the Wandzura-Wilczek approximation for the twist-3 DVCS amplitude
We present a derivation of Wandzura-Wilczek (WW) like relations for skewed parton distributions. It is demonstrated for photon-pion scattering that for transverse photon polarization the skewed twist-3 parton distributions contributing to the DVCS amplitude have discontinuities at the points x = ±ξ in the WW approximation. Unless these discontinuities are cancelled by the neglected genuine high...
متن کاملWandzura - Wilczek approximation for the twist - 3 DVCS amplitude
We present a derivation of Wandzura-Wilczek (WW) like relations for skewed par-ton distributions. It is demonstrated for photon-pion scattering that the skewed twist-3 parton distributions contributing to the DVCS amplitude have discontinuities at the points x = ±ξ in the WW approximation. This may lead to a violation of factorisation for the twist-3 DVCS amplitude with transverse polarization ...
متن کاملNew results in exclusive hard reactions
Generalized Parton Distributions offer a new way to access the quark and gluon nucleon structure. We review recent progress in this domain, emphasizing the need to supplement the experimental study of DVCS by its crossed version, timelike Compton scattering (TCS), where data at high energy should appear thanks to the study of ultraperipheral collisions at the LHC. This will open the access to v...
