Generalized Parton Distributions : Experimental aspects
High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract
After briefly outlining the formalism of the Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) in the first sections, we discuss some general considerations for their experimental study : in particular, the relation between GPDs and experimental observables and the need and requirements for a dedicated experimental facility. Also, we review and comment the first experimental signatures of this physics recently observed by the HERMES and CLAS (at JLab) collaborations.
