Photon induced processes can be used as a sensitive probe of new physics searches and can be studied using exclusive processes. These processes lead to unprecedented sensitivities on quartic anomalous couplings between photons and W and Z…
Nucleon antinucleon annihilation into a near backward (or forward) produced meson and a high invariant mass lepton pair admits a factorized description in terms of antinucleon (or nucleon) distribution amplitudes and nucleon to meson (or…

We study the exclusive electroproduction of a photon pair in the kinematical regime where the diphoton invariant mass is large and where the nucleon flies almost in its original direction. We discuss the relative importance of the QCD…
Groundbreaking studies of exclusive physics processes at the Tevatron have demonstrated that proton-(anti)proton colliders are not only quark-antiquark but also gluon-gluon colliders, photon-photon and photon - gluon colliders. These…
The annihilation of antiprotons on deuterons at rest are investigated for the case when pion-nucleon and pion-delta-isobar pairs are produced. The two-step mechanism is investigated by analysing these processes when either neutral particles…
Exclusive proton-antiproton annihilation into two photons can be viewed as the Compton process in the crossed channel. At large s (~10 GeV^2) and |t|,|u| s this process can be described by a generalized partonic picture, analogous to the…

Among countless channels of hard exclusive reactions, the kaon electromagnetic form factors (EMFFs) are of special interest, which have been measured up to $Q^2 \sim 50\;{\rm GeV}^2$ in the timelike domain. The kaon EMFFs thereby serve an…
I review several topics in electroproduction which test fundamental aspects of QCD. These include the role of final-state interactions in producing diffractive leptoproduction processes, the shadowing of nuclear structure functions, and…
Exclusive two-pion production near threshold in the collision of a highly virtual photon with a real one offers a new possibility to unravel the partonic content of hadrons. We explain the dynamics of this regime, i.e. the separation of the…
We present QCD results for the exclusive processes $\gamma{\rm N}\rightarrow\gamma{\rm N}$ ($\rm N=p,\;n$) at large momentum transfer and compare them to data for the proton. TALK given at DPF meeting, November 10-14, Fermilab.
We consider the Schwinger production of baryons in an external electric field in the worldline instanton approach. The process occurs in the confinement regime hence the holographic QCD and the Chiral Lagrangian are used as the tools. The…
