Polarizabilities are fundamental properties related to the internal structure and dynamics of the nucleon. They play a crucial role not only in our understanding of the nucleon, but also in other areas such as atomic physics. The A2@MAMI Collaboration has undertaken a comprehensive program of real Compton scattering experiments in order to accurately determine these parameters at the MAinz...
Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) provide simultaneously spatial and momentum distribution of quarks and gluons inside the nucleons. GPDs can be accessed experimentally through hard exclusive processes like Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) or Deeply Virtual Meson Production (DVMP). Experiment E12-06-114 completed half of its data taking at the end of 2016 in Hall A at JLab. This...
The form factors of the nucleon are quantities widely used in the forefront of nuclear physics research. Its calculation from first principles is still an open problem that limits our knowledge of the nucleon. In this talk I will show how, using constrains from unitarity, one can find a representation for the spectral functions that allow us to compute much more efficiently the nucleon form...
The E12-09007 experiment in CLAS12 of Hall B at Jefferson lab proposed to measure multiplicities and longitudinal double spin asymmetries for pions (π+,π−, π0) and kaons (K+, K−, K0s) in Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) from both hydrogen and deuterium. The data will be used to measure the x-dependence of the strange parton distribution function (PDF) and will help constrain...
