We systematically evaluate observables for hard exclusive electroproduction of real photons and compare them to experiment using a set of Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) whose parameters are constrained by Deeply Virtual Meson…
In the rest frame of the nucleus, shadowing is due to hadronic fluctuations of the incoming virtual photon, which interact with the nucleons. We expand these fluctuations in a basis of eigenstates of interaction and take only the $q\bar q$…
The Gaussian Process Convolution Model (GPCM; Tobar et al., 2015a) is a model for signals with complex spectral structure. A significant limitation of the GPCM is that it assumes a rapidly decaying spectrum: it can only model smooth…
We investigate the vector meson's gravitational form factors (GFFs) and generalized parton distributions (GPDs) at finite temperatures within the soft-wall AdS/ QCD model. The plotted soft-wall GFFs graphs at zero temperature are close to…
We present a Vector Dark Matter (VDM) model that explains the 3.5 keV line recently observed in the XMM-Newton observatory data from galaxy clusters. In this model, dark matter is composed of two vector bosons, $V$ and $V^\prime$, which…
We present the first measurements of the \vec{e}p->epg cross section in the deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) regime and the valence quark region. The Q^2 dependence (from 1.5 to 2.3 GeV^2) of the helicity-dependent cross section…
The vector dominance of the electromagnetic form factors both for mesons and baryons arises naturally in holographic QCD, where both the number of colors and the 't Hooft coupling are taken to be very large, offering a bona-fide derivation…
We consider Semi-Exclusive Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering, gamma* p \to gamma Y (SECS), where Y is an inclusive state of intermediate mass, \Lambda_QCD << m_Y << Q. When the photon is produced with a large transverse momentum k_T \sim…
While the chiral-even content of the nucleon is better and better studied, the chiral-odd transversity generalized parton distributions (GPDs) remain almost unknown. These GPDs can be accessed experimentally through the exclusive…
Theoretical predictions for polarized nucleon structure function $g_1(x,Q^2)$ at low $Q^2$ are obtained in the framework of the Generalized Vector Meson Dominance model. Contributions from both light and heavy vector mesons are evaluated.…
It is usually assumed -- following the parton model -- that the leading-twist structure functions measured in deep inelastic lepton-proton scattering are simply the probability distributions for finding quarks and gluons in the target…
We discuss the exclusive photoproduction of a photon-meson pair with large $ p_{T} $ as a channel to probe generalised parton distributions (GPDs). Like other $ 2\to3 $ exclusive processes, this channel allows us to better study the $ x…
The diffractive electro- or photo-production of two mesons separated by a large rapidity gap gives access to generalized parton distributions (GPDs) in a very specific way. First, these reactions allow to easily access the chiral-odd…
A reaction model for $\gamma + p \to V + p$, $V=\rho^0, \phi, J/\psi, \Upsilon$, which exposes the quark-antiquark content of the photon in making the transition $\gamma\to {q} \bar{q} + \mathbb P \to V$, where ${q}$ depends on $V$, and…
As one of the predictions of perturbative QCD, the effect of color transparency has been the focus of attention in the community studying modifications of hadrons in nuclear medium for several decades. The search for this effect in…
In this work, we investigate the exclusive production of particles in scattering processes in the so-called saturation region. Within this scheme the phenomenon of geometric scaling takes place: cross sections are functions only of a…
The diffractive process $\gamma^*(Q^2) p\to V+X$ (where $V= \rho^0, \omega , \phi$ are the vector mesons, consisted of light quarks, $X$ represents the hadrons to that a proton dissociates) is studied. We consider the region of large…
The present work reports the use of nuclear transparency effect of protons in proton and deuteron carbon interactions at 4.2 A GeV/c to get information about the states of nuclear matter. The half angle technique is used to extract the…
The transverse momentum spectrum of charged particles in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions fluctuates event-by-event, encoding signatures of underlying collective dynamics. Such fluctuations originate from a combined effect of thermal…
A model for both proton and photon total cross-sections is presented and compared with data. The model is based on the eikonal representation, with QCD mini-jets to drive the rise and soft gluon kt-resummation into the Infrared region to…
