Title Measurement of Hard Exclusive Electroproduction of p0 Meson Cross Section in Hall A of JLab with CEBAF at 12 GeV
Abstract A complete description of nucleon structure requires the simultaneous knowledge of both the spatial and momentum information of the ultimate constituents of the nucleon, the quarks and gluons. Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) provide such tools to describe nucleon structure. GPDs are measurable through hard exclusive processes like Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) and Deeply Virtual Meson Production (DVMP). GPDs can describe hard exclusive processes only if Bjorken factorization is achieved during the hard scattering process. While DVCS data have given hints of the factorization regime being attained, such hints have not been observed for DVMP data. Testing for factorization in DVMP processes is the topic of this thesis. Exclusive p0 electroproduction has been measured by experiment E12-06-114 in Hall A of JLab. Cross sections have been measured at three ¿xed Bjorken-x (xB): 0.35, 0.48 and 0.6 in the Q2 range 3 to 9 GeV2. In this document we present an analysi
