• Physical properties– Transverse imaging– Correlations: transverse, longitudinal,
and nuclear modifications– Tests of reaction mechanism

• Physical interest in GPDs– Transverse spatial distribution of partons with
longitudinal momentum x: transverse imaging of nucleon [Burkhardt 00]
– Correlations in wave function– Moments, Form factor of local twist-2 spin-n
operators: EM tensor, angular momentum [Ji 96, Polyakov 02]
• Tests of reaction mechanism– Model-independent features of small-size regime– Finite-size corrections
• Exclusive processes at sufficiently high Q2 should be understandable in terms of the “handbag” diagram
– The non-perturbative (soft) physics is represented by the GPDso Shown to factorize from QCD perturbative
processes for longitudinal photons [Collins, Frankfurt, Strikman 97]

GeV2?– Electroproduction with Q2>10 GeV2:
test reaction mechanism, compare different channels, control systematics
Tanja Horn, Imaging Sea Quarks and Gluons at an EIC, DIS 2011, Newport News, VA
• Experimentally need:– Recoil detection for exclusivity, wide
coverage in t with high resolution– Luminosity ~ 1034, electroproduction,
high-t

– x-dependence: quark vs. gluon diffusion in wave function
– Detailed analysis: LO NLO [Mueller et al.]
• Do singlet quarks and gluons have the same transverse distribution?
– Hints from HERA:
– Dynamical models predict difference: pion cloud, constituent quark picture [Strikman, Weiss 09]
– No difference assumed in present pp MC generators for LHC!

Transverse spatial structure of non-perturbative sea quarks!
• Lower and more symmetric energies essential to ensure exclusivity
– t-distributions, Fourier transform
Pushes luminosity towards > 1034, also at lower energy
Tanja Horn, Imaging Sea Quarks and Gluons at an EIC, DIS 2011, Newport News, VA
EIC: Transverse strange sea quark imaging
• Do strange and non-strange sea quarks have the same spatial distribution?
– πN or KΛ components in nucleon– QCD vacuum fluctuations– Nucleon/meson structure
ep → e‘K+n
• Lower and more symmetric energies essential to ensure exclusivity
• Rate estimate for KΛ using an empirical fit to kaon electroproduction data from DESY and JLab assuming 100 days at a luminosity of 1034 with 5 on 50 GeV (s=1000 GeV2)
– Consistent with back-of-the-envelope scaling arguments

Transverse polarization example
• Deformation of transverse distribution by transverse polarization of nucleon
– Helicity flip GPD E, cf. Pauli ff
• EIC: exclusive ρ and φ production with transversely polarized beam
– Excellent statistics at Q2>10 GeV2
– Transverse polarization natural for collider

Beyond transverse imaging
Tanja Horn, Imaging Sea Quarks and Gluons at an EIC, DIS 2011, Newport News, VA
• Longitudinal correlations in nucleon– GPDs at x’≠x: correlated pairs in nucleon
– QCD vacuum structure, relativistic nature of nucleon
– EIC: reveal correlations through exclusive meson, γ at x>0.1, Q2 dependence
• Orbital motion of quarks/gluons– TMD and orbital motion from SIDIS
– Major component of the EIC program
– Connection with GPDs– Unintegrated distributions, Ji sum rule
…needs kinematic coverage way beyond JLab 12 GeV
…should be discussed together

• L/T separated cross sections require:– Data taken at different beam
energies (Rosenbluth)
– Sufficiently large Δε (to avoid magnification of the systematic uncertainty in the separation)

• Needed where Q2 >> hadronic scale does not yet apply
