The two-tensor-pomeron model is applied to deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) on a proton. A good description of the DVCS HERA data at small Bjorken-$x$ is achieved due to a sizeable interference of soft and hard pomeron…
Diffractive deeply virtual Compton scattering (DiDVCS) is the process $\gamma^*(- Q^2) + N \rightarrow \rho^0 + \gamma^* (Q'^2)+ N'$, where N is a nucleon or light nucleus, in the kinematical regime of large rapidity gap between the…
