Revealing transversity GPDs through the photoproduction of a photon and a meson
Photoproduction of a pair of particles with large invariant mass is a natural
extension of collinear QCD factorization theorems which have been much studied
for deeply virtual Compton scattering and deeply virtual meson production. We
discuss the production of a photon and a meson, where the wide angle Compton
scattering on a meson subprocess factorizes from generalized parton
distribution. We calculate at dominant twist and leading order in ,
the production cross-section of a transversely polarized meson which is
sensitive to chiral-odd GPDs, and show that it may be measurable in near future

Towards a complete next-to-logarithmic description of forward exclusive diffractive dijet electroproduction at HERA: real corrections
We studied the diffractive cross section with ZEUS
phase space. Neglecting the -channel momentum in the Born and gluon dipole
impact factors, we calculated the corresponding contributions to the cross
section differential in and the angle
between the leptonic and hadronic planes. The gluon dipole contribution
was obtained in the exclusive -algorithm with the exclusive cut
in the small approximation. In the collinear
approximation we canceled singularities between real and virtual contributions
to the dipole configuration, keeping the exact dependency.
We used the Golec-Biernat - W\"usthoff (GBW) parametrization for the dipole
matrix element and linearized the double dipole contributions. The results give
roughly of the observed cross section for small and
coincides with it for large Comment: 40 pages, 7 figure
Impact factor for high-energy two and three jets diffractive production
We present the calculation of the impact factor for the gamma(*) -> q qb g
transition within Balitsky's high energy operator expansion. We also rederive
the impact factor for the gamma(*) -> q qb transition within the same
framework. These results provide the necessary building blocks for further
phenomenological studies of inclusive diffractive deep inelastic scattering as
well as for two and three jets diffractive production which go beyond
approximations discussed in the litterature.Comment: 27 pages, 2 figure
Impact Factor for Exclusive Diffractive Dijet Production with NLO Accuracy
Relying on the shockwave approach, we present the main steps of the
computation of the impact factor for the exclusive diffractive photo- or
electro- production of a forward dijet with NLO accuracy. We provide details of
the cancellation mechanisms for all the divergences which appear in the
intermediate results.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure; proceedings of "Diffraction 2016", International

NLO exclusive diffractive processes with saturation
We present two NLO exclusive impact factors computed in the QCD shock wave
approach. These are the very first steps towards precision studies of a wide
range of high energy exclusive processes with saturation effects in , ,
and collisions.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures, to appear in the proceedings of XXV International

Paving the Way Towards Precision Physics in Saturation Studies Through Exclusive Diffractive Light Neutral Vector Meson Production
We perform the first next-to-leading order computation of the () impact factor in the QCD shockwave approach and
in the most general kinematics. This paves the way to the very first
quantitative study of high-energy nucleon and nucleus saturation beyond the
leading order, in various processes to be measured in , , and
collisions at existing and future colliders.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur
