I introduce a gauge invariant decomposition of the nucleon spin into quark helicity, orbital, and gluon contributions. The total (and hence orbital) contribution is shown to be measurable through virtual Compton scattering in special kinematic region where single dominates. This deeply-virtual (DVCS) has much potential unravel structure nucleon.

We study in QCD the physics of deeply-virtual Compton scattering (DVCS)---the virtual process large s and small t kinematic region. show that DVCS can probe a new type off-forward parton distributions. derive an Altarelli-Parisi evolution equations for these also their sum rules terms nucleon form-factors twist-two quark gluon operators.

We report a new search of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) using the combined low background data sets in 2016 and 2017 from PandaX-II experiment China. The latest set contains exposure 77.1 live day, with reduced to level 0.8$\times10^{-3}$ evt/kg/day, improved by factor 2.5 comparison previous run 2016. No excess events were found above expected background. With total 5.4$\times10^4$ kg most stringent upper limit on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon cross section was for WIMP mass...

I show that the parton physics related to correlations of quarks and gluons on light cone can be studied through matrix elements frame-dependent, equal-time correlators in large momentum limit. This observation allows practical calculations properties a Euclidean lattice. As an example, demonstrate how recover leading-twist quark distribution by boosting correlator momentum.

We argue a factorization formula for semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering with hadrons in the current fragmentation region detected at low transverse momentum. To facilitate factorization, we introduce transverse-momentum dependent parton distributions and functions gauge links slightly off light cone, soft-gluon radiations subtracted. verify to one-loop order perturbative quantum chromodynamics that it is valid all orders perturbation theory.

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 are triggered by realization that contain information about internal spin structure nucleon electroproduction vector mesons depends on these unconventional distributions.

Since the parton model was introduced by Feynman more than fifty years ago, we have learned much about partonic structure of proton through a large body high-energy experimental data and dedicated global fits. However, calculating observables such as distribution function (PDFs) from fundamental theory strong interactions, QCD, has made limited progress. Recently, authors advocated formalism, large-momentum effective (LaMET), which one can extract physics properties travelling at moderate...

In a large-momentum nucleon state, the matrix element of gauge-invariant Euclidean Wilson line operator accessible from lattice QCD can be related to standard light-cone parton distribution function through effective theory (LaMET) expansion. This relation is given by factorization formula with nontrivial matching coefficient. Using product expansion we derive quasiparton in LaMET, and show that more recently discussed pseudoparton approach also obeys an equivalent formula. Explicit results...
