Abstract

An unfortunate misprint in our numerical code has led to an overestimate of the cross section for the exclusive photoproduction of a γ ρL pair in the kinematics where the pair has a large invariant mass and the final nucleon has a small transverse momentum, described in the collinear factorization framework. The rates are thus expected to be smaller but the possibility to disentangle the transversity GPDs through the process where the ρ−meson is transversely polarized is enhanced.

Summary

Introduction

An unfortunate misprint in our numerical code has led to an overestimate of the cross section for the exclusive photoproduction of a γ ρL pair in the kinematics where the pair has a large invariant mass and the final nucleon has a small transverse momentum, described in the collinear factorization framework. In black the contributions of both u and d quarks, in blue the contribution of the u quark, and in green the contribution of the d quark. We show the dominance of the u-quark contribution due to the charge effect. Dσeven d(−u′ )d(−t) dMγρ dσeven (pb · GeV−6 )
