Abstract

Deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) and the exclusive electroproduction of vector mesons (ϱ 0 , ϱ ± , ω, ) and pseudoscalar mesons (π 0 , π ± , …) in the Bjorken regime are sensitive to the recently introduced off-forward parton distributions. We calculate the leading order amplitudes for DVCS and hard meson electroproduction reactions in the valence region and use a model ansatz for the OFPD's to give estimates of observables relevant for experiments at COMPASS, HERMES and JLAB.
