(Dated: June 22, 2023) We estimate the impact of asymmetry measurements of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) with transversely polarized proton beam taken at a future Electron Ion Collider in China (EicC) on the extraction of Compton Form Factors (CFFs).The CFFs extracted from an analysis based on artificial neural-network approach are reweighted by means of pseudo-data generated in the expected kinematic region of EicC.We find a remarkable improvement in the extraction of CFF ImE, especially at the range of parton momentum fraction x ∼ 0.01, thus hinting for a future experimental probe of the parton orbital angular momentum.This work casts a glance at a practical implementation of Bayesian reweighting method on CFFs' impact study.Here Q 2 = −q 2 is the virtuality of the exchanged photon between the initial electron and proton with q the virtual photon 4-vector.The x is the average fractional longitudinal momentum of the active parton, and ξ is half the difference of longitudinal momentum fractions between the initial and the final parton.The Mandelstam variable t = (p − p ) 2 is the squared four-momentum transfer between the initial and final proton.

I. INTRODUCTION
Generalized parton distributions (GPDs), theorized to image the three dimensional nucleon structure in the joint phase space of transverse spatial position and longitudinal momentum, can be probed by exclusive scattering processes.The cleanest of them, the Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) [1][2][3][4][5] is illustrated by a handbag diagram in Fig. 1.The DVCS amplitudes in the Bjorken limit can be decomposed either into helicity amplitudes, or, equivalently into complex structure functions, viz.Compton Form Factors (CFFs), which are to be measured experimentally [6][7][8][9].The CFFs H, E, H and E are convolution of corresponding chiral-even GPDs H, E, H, and E, respectively with renormalized coefficient functions calculable at any order of perturbative QCD (pQCD).Several global extraction of CFFs from DVCS experimental data are now released within neural network [10][11][12][13][14].
The complete and precise extraction of all GPDs from data of exclusive processes puts the highest demands on both theory and facility.The cutting-edge experiment of GPDs have been ongoing during the passed two decades by ZEUS [28,29], H1 [30][31][32][33], HER-MES [34], COMPASS [35], Hall A [36,37] and CLAS [38] and are proposed to continue at JLab update [39][40][41][42] and also future electron-ion colliders [43][44][45][46][47][48].Available data, limited in the valence region, give much more constraint on GPD H than the other GPDs, as recognized by VGG [49,50] and Goloskokov-Kroll (GK) models [51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58].GPD E appears in measurements with neutron or transversely polarized nucleon, which is pioneering, however, suffering from scarcity and sizable statistical uncertainties [59][60][61][62].The GPD E, has for partner the Sivers function considering that they do not depend on quark helicity and both involve a flip of nucleon helicity.The GPD E is of its own importance in the sense of its involvement to the parton orbital angular momenta (OAM) [3], which plays an important role in the proton spin decomposition [54,63,64].From this perspective, DVCS measurements with a transverse polarized proton beam are proposed as one of the priority programs at the proposed Electron-Ion Collider in China (EicC), designed to collide 3.5 GeV polarized electron beam of 80% polarization with 20 GeV polarized proton beam of 70% polarization at instantaneous luminosity of 2 × 10 33 cm −2 s −1 or higher [46][47][48].EicC aims to bridge the kinematic coverage usually referred as sea quark region between JLab and EIC at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).In view of the required uncertainty at planned facilities in order to make substantial progress in the understanding of the DVCS process, an unbiased determination of CFFs or GPDs from all existing measurements is particularly relevant for future experimental design.For the time being, a global extraction of GPDs from full data sets has not been accomplished yet, but it does make much progress at the level of CFFs by several groups [10][11][12][13][14] and at the cross section level by FemtoNet deep neural network [14,65].Among them, PARTONS framework [12,13,66] is publicly available in a manner of open source and its unbiased uncertainties propagation embodied into replica method would serve as a remarkable toolkit for our purpose.
In this paper, we introduce Bayesian reweighting strategy to investigate the impact of pseudo-data at EicC on the extraction of CFFs.Specifically, in Sec.II we present the methodology applied to generate pseudo-data of transversely polarized proton beam-spin asymmetry within the kinematic region of EicC.After introducing the reweighting tool used to perform our analysis in Sec.III, we present the sensitivity of CFF ImE to specific data samples in a more quantitative manner within PARTONS Artificial neural network (ANN).
We conclude our findings and make further remarks in Sec.IV.

II. GENERATION OF PSEUDO-DATA
A. Remarks on theory and kinematics At the leading order, DVCS process off proton in Fig. 1 is factorized to the partonic channel qγ * −→ qγ where an active parton q, is re-absorbed into proton that remains intact after collisions.The observed ep → e p γ reaction is the superposition of DVCS with the known Bethe-Heitler (BH) process, the latter being the initial and final state radiation described by electromagnetic form factors in quantum electrodynamics (QED).The GPDs, initially introduced to describe this kind of deeply exclusive processes evolving with the virtuality Q 2 of the photon, are dependent on the Mandelstam variable t associated to the four-momentum transfer to the proton, the fractional longitudinal momentum transfer x to the struck parton, and the skewness ξ defining the longitudinal momentum fractions transferred to the parton.GPDs are widely connected to other interesting physics quantities.
In particular, after performing a Fourier transform with respect to the transverse component of t in the limit case ξ = 0, one obtains the impact parameter dependent GPDs [67,68], which is the probability density to find a parton of longitudinal momentum fraction x with respect to (w.r.t) its transverse distance b ⊥ from the momentum centre of the nucleon, thus giving tomographic images of the nucleon in 1+2 dimensional joint representation of longitudinal momentum and transverse position.
The first moments of the GPDs H, E, H, and E are related to the Dirac, Pauli, axial and pseudoscalar form factors, respectively.The second moments of the GPDs are relevant to the total angular momenta for quark and gluon through Ji's sum rule [3], Considering that the GPD H (and also H) in the forward direction (ξ = 0, t = 0) reduces to the usual parton distributions constrained by deeply inelastic scattering (DIS) experiments, the GPD E is the genuine interesting issue on the topic of parton angular momentum.Here J q,g combine gauge-invariantly into the nucleon spin, with 1 2 ∆Σ, L q and J g being the quark spin angular momentum, quark OAM and gluon total angular momentum respectively.To study the OAM of the partons, one needs to explore beyond one-dimensional parton distributions.In view of the quark helicity contribution ∆Σ known also from DIS experiments, the GPD E is the sole missing piece toward the full understanding of quark OAM.Indeed, GPD E describes the amplitude in terms of the flip of nucleon spin but non-flip of the parton helicities in light-cone frame, implying therefore one unit change of OAM between the initial and final nucleon states.This provides a practical way to quantifying quark OAM inside the nucleon with solid theory basis.
At leading twist level the GPDs F (H, E, H, and E), describing the soft structure of the nucleon, enter the cross section of DVCS through its sub-amplitudes, CFFs F (H, E, H and E), by the convolutions of GPDs over over variable x) [9,69], where the sum is made over quark flavors q and the upper/lower signs are for the unpolarized GPDs (H, E) and the polarized GPDs ( H, E), respectively.At leading order we have As genuine observables, CFFs can be precisely measured and separated by various cross sections and asymmetries w.r.t different beam spin, particularly their azimuthal modulations within different kinematic bins (Q 2 , ξ, t) (or equivalently Q 2 , x B , t) [70].This makes the first step towards extraction of GPDs globally from worldwide data.
However, the GPD E, and hence CFF E, involved in the extraction of the quark OAM along the longitudinal axis, surprisingly appears only in the experiment of neutron target or a transversely polarized proton beam, which currently merely available with limited kinematic domain in fix-target experiments at HERMES [59][60][61][62] and proposed recently by JLab [38,42].At present only valence region are experimentally accessed with deficient accuracy and expected to be ameliorated by the update of JLab 12 GeV [39].It is prerequisite to understanding how sea quarks and gluons behave inside nucleon at future colliders, as depicted in Fig. 2 together with existing measurements.Nowadays it is widely recognized that such extensive programs with large kinematic coverage and accurate measurements of asymmetries and cross sections are together indispensable for high precision extracting of GPDs.Under current configuration of the electron and proton beam-energy (3.5 GeV × 20 GeV), EicC will dramatically extend the experimental study of GPDs with high statistics to the sea quark region of 0.01 < x B < 0.1 when restricting to the safely perturbative region 2 < Q 2 < 30 GeV 2 , and reach down to x B ∼ 0.004 when Q 2 approaching to 1 GeV 2 .It is feasible to ascertain the uncultivated domain of larger virtuality Q 2 > 30.0 GeV 2 with bearable statistics for measuring the differential cross section.It will touch the valence quark region with relatively higher Q 2 than that at JLab 12GeV program.This kinematic coverage of EicC is unique to explore parton spatial tomography of the sea quark inside nucleon, thus complementary to the EIC at RHIC with the aim of understanding glue.EicC is also distinctive in the sense that the interference between the DVCS and the BH processes is more prominent at a lower energy machine, whereas the DVCS process is expected to dominate at high energies.

B. Pseudo-data production
In the present exploration an integrated luminosity of 50 fb −1 is assumed for the generated data samples, corresponding to around 290 days of data taking under the current luminosity design of EicC with a 100% operational efficiency.The DVCS and BH processes together with their interference term have been simulated by the Monte Carlo (MC) generator MILOU [73], slightly modified from its original version [74,75].The DVCS amplitude is evaluated by CFFs tables generated in a GPD-inspired framework to next-to-leading (NLO) and twist-two accuracy incorporating as well NLO GPD evolution [76].The exponential t-dependence of the DVCS amplitude is introduced with a constant t-slope parameter 5.45 GeV −2 for the MILOU steering card.Fig. 3 demonstrates the event samples obtained from MILOU package using the following loose selection criteria: the invariant mass of γp in final states are set up W > 2.0 GeV to isolate the resonance contribution; the detector acceptance is 0.01 < y < 0.95; the momentum P p of the final proton in the laboratory frame is smaller than 99% of the initial proton momentum, and the scattering angle θ p is bigger than 2 mrad.The scattered proton acceptance is constrained to be 1.0 > |t| > 0.01 GeV 2 with a resolution of ∆|t| > 0.02 GeV 2 .Possibility of 0.002 < |t| < 0.01 GeV 2 is scrutinized, critically depending on the final performance of detector.For comparison, the values of |t| > 0.03 GeV 2 and ∆|t| > 0.03 GeV 2 are adopted at EIC simulation [74].
The (x B , Q 2 ) bin scheme of Fig. 3 where φ is the angle between the leptonic plane and the real photon production plane.The number of events in each kinematic bin is proportional to the dσ(φ, φ S ), the abbreviation of five-fold differential cross section, with the e l being the electron beam charge in units of the elementary charge.The φ S is the angle between lepton scattering plane and S T , the transverse component of the incoming proton spin polarization vector that is orthogonal to photon direction.The transversely polarized proton beam-spin asymmetry A UT is selected as a trial observable, defined in term of the charge-normalized cross sections for opposite orientations of the transverse spin of the nucleon, which is approximately given by a sin (φ − φ s ) cos φ dependence plus a cos (φ − φ s ) sin φ modulation [77].Under the assumption of dominance of BH term in above denominator it still obtains more or less direct linear dependence on CFFs of A UT .For instance, CFF E of proton becomes manifest in the sin (φ − φ s ) cos φ module, whose interference part of amplitudes are given by, where ImE is imaginary part of CFF E, and F 1,2 are the nucleon Dirac and Pauli form factor.
The cos (φ − φ s ) sin φ module is complicated by contributions from both CFF H and E, So the sin (φ − φ s ) cos φ module, providing a rare access to the ImE with no kinematic suppression of its contribution relative to those of the other CFFs, is what we are really care about for the present study.The full analytic formulas, which relate CFFs with observables at the twist-two level and include the power-suppressed contributions, are explicitly listed in Eqs.(71,75) of Ref. [77].
The uncorrelated statistical uncertainties in each bin are calculated with the help of likelihood method, where N events is the total number of BH/DVCS events obtained after scaling the generated cross sections to integrated luminosity of EicC.The P T = 70% is the transverse polarization of nucleon beam.As displayed in Fig. 4, the EicC measurements of the A UT with a single angular modulation sin(φ − φ s ) cos φ have rather small statistical uncertainties for a wide kinematic region, as low as a few percent at values of |t| > 0.01 GeV 2 judged by the GK model.This implies that the measurement is actually limited by systematic uncertainties, of a few percentage depending on the facility design, which can be easily incorporated with quadrature addition.The events are largely accumulated in 0.002 < |t| < 0.01 GeV 2 region, giving rise to well-below 0.01 absolute uncertainties.The relative uncertainties in this region are as high as tens of percent, solely driven by the tiny magnitudes of asymmetries.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE IMPACT STUDY
Since ten years ago ANN was utilized to globally extract the CFFs under the assumption of vanishing real part of E and H, which are poorly constrained by available data [10,27].
This unbiased method is shown to properly reduce model dependency and propagate the uncertainties in the sense that the obtained CFFs are hardly constrained in kinematic region where data are scarce or deficient.An open source PARTONS framework was developed and publicly available [12,13], which abandoned the aforementioned assumption and extended substantially the set of data used in phenomenological studies..It is an ideal starting point for follow-up Bayesian reweighting technique according to the rules of statistical inference, as proved by NNPDF [78,79].To enable this study, we utilize the ensemble of N rep = 101 CFF replicas generated through importance sampling by PARTONS with the input of DVCS data collected in the past two decades.The uncertainties of each CFF are independently described by these initial replicas as a function of (ξ, Q 2 , −t).After locally removing the outliers of those replicas with iteratively the 3σ rule [80,81] and averaging over this distilled ensemble, the mean values of A sin (φ−φs) cos φ UT and the predicted size of CFF in sea-quark region, are nearly zero with large standard deviation, reflecting the little constraint power of data in this region.
The superscript "SC" stands for sin (φ − φ s ) cos φ, now explicitly labeled in caption of The mean values of the asymmetry evaluated from PARTONS replicas are then randomly smeared by the statistical uncertainties at EicC.The generated pseudo-data in this way, labeled as a N data row vector-y, are exploited to update the ensemble of replicas by calculating   the weight of each replica [78,79], with the normalization factor Z fixed by where y k is the row vector of k-th replica generated in ANN at the kinematic bins of pseudodata, σ is the covariance matrix of pseudo-data y and T denotes matrix transposition.The number of effective replicas after reweighting are judged in the same spirit of Shannon entropy: The newly measurements at EicC is supposed to be much more precise than contemporary uncertainties inferred from ANN as illustrated in Fig. 5, resulting into a large reduction of uncertainty of CFF.This is verified by a trial inspection under 50.0 fb −1 luminosity of EicC that little effective replicas survive on reweighting.In order to keep the reweighting procedure reliable, we reconcile to decrease the luminosity to 0.12 fb −1 .The number of left effective replicas still relevant is around 1/3 of the initial replicas, keeping the importance sampling off statistical insignificance.
In kinematic terms the factorization in Fig. 1 is valid when the virtuality Q 2 of the photon probe is large but the momentum transfer −t Q 2 to the nucleon is small compared to this scale of the probe.In order to match the kinematic cuts in PARTONS, the additional conditions are applied to the avoid significant higher-twist corrections [36,37,[83][84][85].Then the lowest Since the new dataset contain a lot of information on the CFFs, necessitating a reweight-ing globally or a re-training against all the measured and proposed experimental data in order to excavate the full influence of the machine.The re-training under the same pseudodata in Fig. 5 is attempted within KM neural network [10,11,27] in EicC white paper [48].
There the uncertainty bands of CFF H and E are smaller than those in PARTONS under the hypothesis of vanishing real part of E and H.Still, we monitored a significant reduction of uncertainties of ImE, as selectively depicted at −t = 0.2 GeV 2 .It also considerably ignites the understanding the real part ReE in the range of ξ < 0.1 when dispersive relations are enabled.

IV. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
The understanding of proton spin and 3D structure in conventional quark model tends to be insufficient with desired accuracy [86,87].Though quark OAM are in connection with some of the transverse momentum dependent parton distributions, e.g. the Sivers function [88][89][90][91] or pretzelosity [92,93]  At last, let us highlight some specific perspective of future evolvement.The local extraction of CFFs is another frequently used alternative for propagating uncertainties of data to amplitudes [97,98].A recent progress toward Rosenbluth extraction framework for CFF has captured the essentials of DVCS architecture but still needs to be solidified [99][100][101].
Moreover, more efforts are required to extrapolate zero skewness of GPDs by theoretical calculation, .e.g. in nonlocal chiral effective theory [102] and basis light-front quantization [103,104], to the skewness covered by the facilities.Fortunately, lattice QCD calculations of GPDs have made rapid progress [105][106][107][108][109][110][111][112][113][114].During the development of these tools, it will become apparent that one must measure all of the DVCS observables at several facilities to obtain continuous kinematic coverage across the large x B down to the saturation regime that suffice for a complete 3D images of proton in the language of GPDs.With a complete knowledge of these functions it will be possible to quest for instance the OAM and proton spin puzzle through Ji's sum rules.Last but not least we address that the polarized light-ion beams such as 3 He with a polarization of 70% at EicC and EIC potentially allows one to separate the quark flavors by DVCS off the neutron [11,115] together with hard exclusive meson electroproduction (DEMP) [116] and the positron beam at JLab [81].

in a phenomenological way, its relation to GPD E is what genuinely sustained by solid theoretical foundation.A precise extracting GPD E and also H from exclusive processes hopefully leads to a quantification of quark OAM inside proton[94][95][96].It is extremely challenging to achieve this in practice because it requires measuring GPD for all x at fixed ξ.Nevertheless, future electron-ion colliders worldwide have great potential to advance our knowledge of quark OAM and also proton tomography.It is therefore crucial to obtain remarkably various polarization choices and wide kinematic reach with the help of high luminosity accelerators and hermetic detectors.Though global GPD fits over the whole DVCS kinematic domain, from the glue to the valence region, have remained intractable yet, the local and global fits of CFFs are available at the amplitude level.These tools motivate a feasibility study for the determination of CFFs by versatile observables at EicC and other facilities, and provide one of the cornerstones of the machine construction.In return, the design of the EicC offers unprecedented new opportunities to inspect and ameliorate these fits by feed them with pseudo-data at sea quark region.The asymmetry measurement of DVCS with transversely polarized proton beam is particularly relevant for the experimental determination of the parton OAM.A selected modulation of A UT has the best sensitivity to E to the imaginary part of CFF E. The DVCS simulations used for our studies are based on the physical Ansatz of constant Regge slope B, and the projected events at EicC are selected in the appropriate kinematic region, covering a domain of 1.0 GeV 2 < Q 2 < 80.0 GeV 2 , 0.004 < x B < 0.3, and |t| > 0.002 GeV 2 .The absolute statistical uncertainty for the measured asymmetry can be as low as 0.01 for |t| > 0.01 GeV 2 .The relative uncertainties below a few percentage, judged by the magnitude of asymmetry in GK models.The uncertainty for the extraction of the ImE is unambiguously reduced around the sea region as long as the asymmetry pseudo-data of EicC are included into the reweighting procedure.Meanwhile we take advantage of high Q 2 region to disentangle the constraining power of ImE since GPDs are also subject to QCD evolution.This serves as the best check so far of the relationship of DVCS single spin asymmetry and CFFs in a non-local fashion, and reveals future experimental constraints on this observable.Measurements of the A UT asymmetry must be completed to realise the full physics potential of EicC.
