Journal of High Energy Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Several observables for the deeply virtual Compton scattering process have been simulated in the kinematic regime of a proposed Electron-Ion Collider to explore the possible impact of such measurements for the phenomenological access of generalized parton distributions. In particular, emphasis is given to the transverse distribution of sea quarks and gluons and how such measurements can provide information on the angular momentum sum rule. The exact lepton energy loss dependence for the unpolarized t-differential electroproduction cross section, needed for a Rosenbluth separation, is also reported.
