We consider different aspects of the virtual Compton amplitude in QCD on two examples: small-x physics accessible in the Regge regime and twist-3 approximation in the description of DVCS through the general parton distributions. Using this…
An effective field theory describing the QCD diffraction scattering is constructed. The constituent quarks interacting with multiperi- pheral gluons and Goldstone bosons are described by impact- parameter two-dimensional sigma models for…
We show that both the k_T- and collinear factorization for the DIS structure functions can be obtained by consecutive reductions of the Compton scattering amplitude. Each of these reductions is an approximation valid under certain…
The generalized parton distributions (GPDs) have emerged as a universal tool to describe hadrons in terms of their elementary constituents, the quarks and the gluons. Deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) on a proton or neutron ($N$), $e…
We have analyzed the longitudinally polarized proton target asymmetry data of the Deep Virtual Compton process recently published by the HERMES collaboration in terms of Generalized Parton Distributions. We have fitted these new data in a…
We study in QCD the physics of deeply-virtual Compton scattering (DVCS)---the virtual Compton process in the large s and small t kinematic region. We show that DVCS can probe a new type of off-forward parton distributions. We derive an…
In this note, we demonstrate in detail the $\xi$-process implementation applied to the deeply virtual Compton scattering amplitude to ensure both the QCD and QED gauge invariance. The presented details are also important for understanding…
We calculate the differential cross section and single-polarization observables for the reaction $\gamma p \to \Phi p$ within perturbative QCD, treating the proton as a quark-diquark system. The phenomenological couplings of gauge bosons to…
A new method of extracting diffractive parton distributions is presented which avoids the use of Regge theory ansatz and is in much closer relation with the factorization theorem for diffarctive hard processes.
Due to multiple possible polarizations hard exclusive production of tensor mesons by virtual photons or in heavy meson decays offers interesting possibilities to study the helicity structure of the underlying short-distance process.…
The one-loop correction to heavy quark pair back-to-back production in unpolarized semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering is given in this work in the framework of transverse momentum dependent(TMD) factorization. Both unpolarized and…
We discuss possibilities of measurement of deeply virtual Compton scattering amplitudes via different asymmetries in order to access the underlying skewed parton distributions. Perturbative one-loop coefficient functions and two-loop…
A unified presentation is given on the use of dispersion relations in the real and virtual Compton scattering processes off the nucleon. The way in which dispersion relations for Compton scattering amplitudes establish connections between…
The primary goal of this paper is to describe the diffraction production using the model that takes into account the Pomeron interaction, and satisfies both $t$ and $s$ channel unitarity. We hope that these features will allow us to…
In the past decade overwhelming evidence has emerged for a conjectured duality between a wide class of gauge theories in d dimensions and string theories on asymptotically AdS_{d+1} spaces. We apply this duality to scattering processes that…
The QCD-based generalized vector dominance-color-dipole picture (GVD-CDP) provides a coherent picture of low-x DIS, deeply virtual Compton scattering and light as wel as heavy vector-meson production.
The systematic errors inherent in the QCD sum rule approach to meson wavefunctions are examined in the context of QCD in 1+1 spacetime dimensions in the large N limit where the theory is exactly solvable. It is shown that the truncation of…
The paper presents the $QCD$ description of the hard and semihard processes in the framework of the Wilson operator product expansion. The smooth transition between the cases of the soft and hard Pomerons is obtained.
We investigate hard exclusive reactions on the nucleon with soft pion emission. A parametrization of corresponding hadronic matrix elements in terms of parton distributions for final pion-nucleon state is provided. These distributions are…
