Hard Exclusive Reactions and the Structure of Hadrons
read the original abstract
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 the GPDs and discuss the quark GPDs in the large $N_c$ limit and within the context of the chiral quark-soliton model. Guided by this physics, we then present a general parametrization for these GPDs. Subsequently we discuss how these GPDs enter in a wide variety of hard electroproduction processes and how they can be accessed from them. We consider in detail deeply virtual Compton scattering and the hard electroproduction of mesons. We identify a list of key observables which are sensitive to the various nucleon structure aspects contained in the GPDs and which can be addressed by present and future experiments.

Exclusive photoproduction of a di-meson pair with large invariant mass
Calculations of di-meson photoproduction amplitudes at leading order show cross sections up to 100 times larger than single-meson cases, enabling better GPD extraction.

Covariant Construction of Generalized Form Factors
A group-theoretic construction yields complete form factor bases for scalar, vector, and tensor operators on spin-1/2 to spin-2 particles, with new P and T structures for higher spins and identification of a redundant...

Generalized parton distributions of valence, sea, and gluon components of the proton
Using basis light-front quantization wave functions, the authors calculate GPDs for proton components at low resolution scale and obtain results qualitatively similar to but smaller than the GUMP1.0 global extraction.

Gravitational transverse momentum distribution of proton
Analytical expressions for quark gravitational TMDs are derived in the LFQDM, verified against standard TMD relations, and linked to transverse pressure and shear-force distributions.
