Electroproduction of pion pairs

We study hard exclusive electroproduction of two pions in the QCD factorization approach at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the strong coupling. The pion pair can be produced both in an isovector and in an isoscalar state. The angular distribution of the produced pion pairs allows one to project out a component that depends on the interference of the isovector and isoscalar channels. Using specific models for the involved generalized parton distributions and two-pion distribution amplitudes we investigate the angular distributions of the pion pair in NLO and compare them with HERMES data. The differences between the LO and NLO results are moderate and the agreement with data is satisfactory, though not perfect. Expecting new results from COMPASS collaboration we perform the calculation also for the COMPASS kinematics.

Electroproduction of two light vector mesons in next-to-leading BFKL

We calculate the amplitude for the forward electroproduction of two light vector mesons in next-to-leading order BFKL. This amplitude represents the first next-to-leading order amplitude ever calculated for a collision process between strongly interacting colorless particles.

Electroproduction of two light vector mesons in the next-to-leading approximation

We calculate the amplitude for the forward electroproduction of two light vector mesons in next-to-leading order BFKL. This amplitude is written as a convolution of two impact factors for the virtual photon to light vector meson transition with the BFKL Green's function. It represents the first next-to-leading order amplitude ever calculated for a collision process between strongly interacting colorless particles.

Exclusive diffractive electroproduction of dijets in collinear factorization

Exclusive electroproduction of hard dijets can be described within the collinear factorization. This process has clear experimental signature and provides one with an interesting alternative venue to test QCD description of hard diffractive processes and extract information on generalized nucleon parton distributions. In this work we present detailed leading-order QCD calculations of the relevant cross sections, including longitudinal momentum fraction distribution of the dijets and their azimuthal angle dependence.

Polarization effects in the non-linear Compton scattering

We consider emission of a photon by an electron in the field of a strong laser wave. A probability of this process for circularly or linearly polarized laser photons and for arbitrary polarization of all other particles is calculated. We obtain the complete set of functions which describe such a probability in a compact invariant form. Besides, we discuss in some detail the polarization effects in the kinematics relevant to the problem of electron to photon conversion at photon-photon and electron-photon colliders.

Excited two-dimensional magnetopolaron states in quantum well of resonant tunnel junction

Tunnel spectroscopy is used to probe the electronic structure in GaAs quantum well of resonant tunnel junction over wide range of energies and magnetic fields normal to layers. Spin degenerated high Landau levels ($N=2\div7$) are found to be drastically renormalised near energies when the longitudinal optical-phonon ($\hbarω_{LO}$) and cyclotron energy ($\hbarω_{C}$) are satisfied condition $\hbarω_{LO}=m\hbarω_{C}$, where $m=1,2,3$. This renormalisation is attributed to formation of resonant magnetopolarons, i.e. mixing of high index Landau levels by strong interaction of electrons at Landau level states with LO-phonons.

Hard exclusive production of a vector meson

The processes of a light neutral vector meson, V=ρ^0, ω, ϕ, electroproduction and a heavy quarkonium, V=J/Ψ, Υ, photoproduction are studied in the framework of QCD factorization. We derive a complete set of hard-scattering amplitudes which describe these processes at next-to-leading order (NLO).

The impact factor for the virtual photon to light vector meson transition

We evaluate in the next-to-leading approximation the forward impact factor for the virtual photon to light vector meson transition in the case of longitudinal polarization. We find that in the hard kinematic domain, both in the leading and in the next-to-leading approximation, the expression for the impact factor factorizes, up to power suppressed corrections, into the convolution of a perturbatively calculable hard-scattering amplitude and a meson twist-2 distribution amplitude.

Electroproduction of a light neutral vector meson at next-to-leading order

The process of a light neutral vector meson electroproduction is studied in the framework of QCD factorization in which the amplitude factorizes in a convolution of the nonperturbative meson distribution amplitude and the generalized parton densities with the perturbatively calculable hard-scattering amplitudes. We derive a complete set of hard-scattering amplitudes at next-to-leading order (NLO) for the production of vector mesons, $V=ρ^0, ω, ϕ$.

Probing Transversity in Electroproduction of Two Vector Mesons

Electroproduction of two vector mesons with a large rapidity gap between them provides the first feasible selective access to chiral-odd GPDs. The scattering amplitude of the process $ γ^* N \to ρ_L^0 ρ_T^+ N'$ may be represented as a convolution of an impact factor describing the $γ^* \to ρ_L^0$ transition and an amplitude describing the $N\to ρ_T^+ N'$ transition, analogously to deeply exclusive electroproduction of a meson, the virtual photon being replaced by a Pomeron. The production of a transversely polarized vector meson $ρ_T^+$ selects a chiral-odd GPD in the proton.

We consider emission of a photon by an electron in the field of a strong laser wave. Polarization effects in this process are important for a number of physical problems. We discuss a probability of this process for linearly polarized laser photons and for arbitrary polarization of all other particles. We obtain the complete set of functions which describe such a probability in a compact form.

Muon Colliders, Monte Carlo and Gauge Invariance

If calculated in the standard way, the cross section for the collision of two unstable particles turns out to diverge. This is because this cross section is actually proportional to the size of the colliding beams. The effect is called the "linear beam size effect". We present a way of including this linear beam size effect in the usual Monte Carlo integration procedure. Furthermore we discuss the gauge breaking that this may cause.

Complete description of polarization effects in the nonlinear Compton scattering. I. Circularly polarized laser photons

We consider emission of a photon by an electron in the field of a strong laser wave. Polarization effects in this process are important for a number of physical problems. We discuss a probability of this process for circularly polarized laser photons and for arbitrary polarization of all other particles. We obtain the complete set of functions which describe such a probability in a compact covariant form. Besides, we discuss an application of the obtained formulas to the problem of electron -> photon conversion at photon-photon and photon-electron colliders.

The B-Meson Distribution Amplitude in QCD

The B-meson distribution amplitude is calculated using QCD sum rules. In particular we obtain an estimate for the integral relevant to exclusive B-decays λ_B = 460 \pm 110 MeV at the scale 1 GeV. A simple QCD-motivated parametrization of the distribution amplitude is suggested.

Diffractive electroproduction of two mesons separated by a large rapidity gap

We consider the process gamma^* N -> M_1 M_2 N' with a large rapidity gap between the two mesons M_1 and M_2. Within the QCD collinear approximation, the scattering amplitude may be written as a convolution of an impact factor describing the gamma^* -> M_1 transition and an amplitude describing the N -> M_2 N' collinear process.

Diffractive Dissociation into Two Jets

We report a study of the processes of coherent a pion and a photon diffraction dissociation into two jets. The structure of non-factorizable contributions in these reactions is discussed. We argue that production of hard dijets by real photons can provide direct evidence for chirality violation in hard processes and the first measurement of the magnetic susceptibility of the quark condensate.
