We calculate in the framework of the collinear QCD approach the amplitude for exclusive neutrino-production of a pseudoscalar charmed $D$ meson. This process allows to access gluon and both chiral-odd and chiral-even quark generalized…
After reviewing QCD definitions of the chiral-odd spin-dependent parton distributions $h_1(x,Q^2)$ and h_L(x,Q^2), I will summarize the main feature of the recent two results in perturbative QCD: (i) Next-to-leading order $Q^2$ evolution of…
We study the scale dependence of twist-3 distributions defined with chirality-odd quark-gluon operators. To derive the scale dependence we explicitly calculate these distributions of multi-parton states instead of a hadron. Taking one-loop…

The analysis of deeply virtual meson production is extended to neutrino-production of the pseudo-Goldstone mesons (pions, kaons, eta-mesons) on nucleons, with the flavor content of the recoil baryon either remaining intact, or changing to a…
We outline in detail the properties of generalized parton distributions (GPDs), which contain new information on the structure of the nucleon and which enter the description of hard exclusive reactions. We highlight the physics content of…
Generalized parton distributions (GPDs) have become a standard QCD tool for analyzing and parametrizing the non perturbative parton structure of hadron targets. GPDs might be viewed as non-diagonal overlaps of light-cone wave functions and…
