Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering at HERA and Prospects on Nucleon Tomography

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-06-17 v2

Abstract

Standard parton distribution functions contain neither information on the correlations between partons nor on their transverse motion, then a vital knowledge about the three dimensional structure of the nucleon is lost. Hard exclusive processes, in particular DVCS, are essential reactions to go beyond this standard picture. In the following, we examine the most recent data and their implication on the quarks/gluons imaging (tomography) of the nucleon.
