Beam Spin Asymmetry Measurements from Deeply Virtual exclusive Meson Production

ORAL

Abstract

A DVCS experiment was run at Jefferson Lab during the spring of 2005 with the CLAS detector, using a 5.7 GeV longitudinally polarized electron beam impinging on a Hydrogen target. This experiment is being analyzed by the CLAS Collaboration to characterize the partonic properties of the nucleon in the framework of Generalized Parton Distributions(GPDs). We will report on the ongoing analysis to determine the Beam Spin Asymmetry for the pi0 and eta channels.
