The chiral-odd generalized parton distribution (GPD), or transversity GPD, of the nucleon can be accessed experimentally through the photo- or electroproduction of two vector mesons on a polarized nucleon target, \gamma^(*) N --> \rho_1 \rho_2 N', where \rho_1 is produced at large transverse momentum, \rho_2 is transversely polarized, and the mesons are separated by a large rapidity gap. We predict the cross section for this process for both transverse and longitudinal \rho_{2} production. To this end we propose a model for the transversity GPD H_T(x,\xi,t), and give an estimate of the relative sizes of the transverse and longitudinal \rho_{2} cross sections. We show that a dedicated experiment at high energy should be able to measure the transversity content of the proton.

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Replacing the rapidity argument of the dipole amplitude with ln min{1/|x|, 1/|ξ|} and refining initial conditions for non-linear evolution can eliminate two R-factors in small-x shockwave calculations.

  2. Probing quark transversity GPDs in diffractive photo- and electroproduction on the deuteron

    hep-ph 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Calculations for coherent vector meson production on deuteron indicate that an EIC could probe transversity GPDs.
