Recently, there have been some interesting developments involving off-forward parton distributions of the nucleon, deeply virtual Compton scattering, and hard diffractive vector-meson production. These developments are triggered by the realization that the off-forward distributions contain information about the internal spin structure of the nucleon and that diffractive electroproduction of vector mesons depends on these unconventional distributions. This paper gives a brief overview of the recent developments.

  1. Covariant Construction of Generalized Form Factors

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A group-theoretic construction yields complete form factor bases for scalar, vector, and tensor operators on spin-1/2 to spin-2 particles, with new P and T structures for higher spins and identification of a redundant...

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Replacing the rapidity argument of the dipole amplitude with ln min{1/|x|, 1/|ξ|} and refining initial conditions for non-linear evolution can eliminate two R-factors in small-x shockwave calculations.

  3. Extracting Mellin moments of double parton distributions from lattice data

    hep-lat 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Skewness dependence in hadronic matrix elements must be accounted for when extracting Mellin moments of double parton distributions from lattice QCD, and model studies show its quantitative impact on current data.
