Deeply virtual Compton scattering at small x_B and the access to the GPD H

Kumericki, Kresimir, Mueller, Dieter

Understand

We give a partonic interpretation for the deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) measurements of the H1 and ZEUS collaborations in the small-x_B region in terms of generalized parton distributions.

  • Thereby we have a closer look at the skewness effect, parameterization of the t-dependence, revealing the chromomagnetic pomeron, and at a model dependent access to the anomalous gravitomagnetic moment of nucleon.
  • We also quantify the reparameterization of generalized parton distributions resulting from the inclusion of radiative corrections up to next-to-next-to-leading order.
  • Beyond the leading order approximation, our findings are compatible with a `holographic' principle that would arise from a (broken) SO(2,1) symmetry.
