In recent years, it has become possible to measure not only the magnitude of the electric ($G_E$) and magnetic ($G_M$) form factors of spin $\frac{1}{2}$ baryons, but also to measure the relative phases of those quantities in the timelike…
There has been considerable progress in the study of the electromagnetic form factors of baryons in the timelike region, through electron-positron scattering reactions ($e^+ e^- \to B \bar B$), in the last two decades. Timelike experiments…
We describe the process $\gamma N \to \gamma\,\rho N'$ in the generalized Bjorken regime where the $\gamma\,\rho $ pair has a large invariant mass. In the collinear QCD factorization framework, the amplitude gives access to both chiral-even…
The gravitational form factors (GFFs) of the baryon octet, including hyperons, are investigated in a bottom-up holographic QCD model that explicitly incorporates the SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking through the strange quark mass. We fit the…
We present estimates of the hyperon elastic form factors for the baryon octet and the $\Omega^-$ baryon for large four-momentum transfer squared, $q^2$, in the timelike region ($q^2>0$). Experimentally, those form factors can be extracted…
The generalized parton distributions, introduced nearly a decade ago, have emerged as a universal tool to describe hadrons in terms of quark and gluonic degrees of freedom. They combine the features of form factors, parton densities and…

We perform a perturbative QCD analysis of the gluonic gravitational form factors (GFFs) of the proton and pion at large momentum transfer. We derive the explicit factorization formula of the GFFs in terms of the distribution amplitudes of…
The generalized parton distributions and the generalized distribution amplitudes give access to a deeper understanding of the quark and gluon content of hadrons. In this short review, we select some new developments of their interesting…
We present a new determination of the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) with their uncertainties at zero skewness, $ \xi =0 $, through a simultaneous analysis of all available experimental data of the nucleon electromagnetic form…
We demonstrate that chiral-odd dimeson generalized distribution amplitudes (CO-GDAs) -- nonperturbative objects encoding the transition of a quark-antiquark pair into two mesons -- can be accessed in high-energy $e^- e^+$ annihilation into…
An updated flexible parametrization of the generalized parton distributions in the quark, antiquark and gluon sectors is presented using constraints from high precision electron nucleon deep inelastic scattering data, as well as from the…
A study of hadron pair production mechanism is motivated by the recent observed decays $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)+}K^-K^0$. One novel phenomenon is threshold enhancement of the kaon pair production. We show that these decays in the heavy quark…
Based on a global fit to experimental measurements of the pion electromagnetic form factor and parton distribution functions (PDFs), we report a data-driven determination of the unpolarized quark generalized parton distributions (GPDs) for…
We argue that generalized parton distributions (GPDs), accessible in hard exclusive processes, carry information about the spatial distribution of forces experienced by quarks and gluons inside hadrons. This way the measurements of hard…
We compute the exclusive photoproduction of a $\gamma\,\pi^\pm$ pair using the collinear factorisation framework, in the kinematic regime where the pair has a large invariant mass. This exclusive channel presents a new avenue for the…
We investigate the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) with non-zero $\xi$ and $\Delta^\perp$ for a relativistic spin-1/2 composite system, namely for an electron dressed with a photon, in light-front framework by expressing them in…
In the large momentum transfer limit, generalized parton distributions can be calculated through a QCD factorization theorem which involves perturbatively-calculable hard kernels and light-cone parton distribution amplitudes of hadrons. We…
We present the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) for the valence quarks of the pion and the kaon in both momentum space and position space within the basis light-front quantization framework. These GPDs are obtained from the…
A QCD analysis of the reactions A B -> gamma^* gamma and gamma^* gamma -> A B in the forward region shows that they can be factorized in a way which is quite similar to the frameword developped for deeply virtual Compton scattering. The…
