Hard Exclusive 0-Meson Production at COMPASS

Abstract

New results for the transverse target spin azimuthal asymmetry AUTsin(φ-φS) for hard exclusive 0-meson production on a transversely polarised 6LiD and NH3 target will be presented. The measurement was performed with the COMPASS detector using the 160 GeV/c muon beam of the SPS at CERN. The asymmetry is sensitive to the nucleon helicity-flip generalised parton distribution E, which is related to the orbital angular momentum of quarks in the nucleon.
