Abstract

Measuring Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on the neutron is one of the necessary steps to understand the structure of the nucleon in terms of Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs). Neutron targets play a complementary role to transversely polarized proton targets in the determination of the GPD $E$. This poorly known and poorly constrained GPD is essential to obtain the contribution of the quarks' angular momentum to the spin of the nucleon. DVCS on the neutron was measured for the first time selecting the exclusive final state by detecting the neutron, using the Jefferson Lab longitudinally polarized electron beam, with energies up to 10.6 GeV, and the CLAS12 detector. The extracted beam-spin asymmetries, combined with DVCS observables measured on the proton, allow a clean quark-flavor separation of the imaginary parts of the GPDs $H$ and $E$.

首次测量中子的深虚康普顿散射并探测到活动中子

测量中子的深虚康普顿散射是根据广义粒子分布（GPD）了解核子结构的必要步骤之一。在确定 GPD$E$ 时，中子靶与横向极化质子靶起着互补作用。这种知之甚少和约束不足的 GPD 对于获得夸克角动量对核子自旋的贡献至关重要。通过使用杰斐逊实验室的纵向极化电子束（能量高达10.6 GeV）和CLAS12探测器对中子进行探测，首次选择了中子的排他性终态来测量中子的DVCS。
