and T01, respectively, and T00 obtained for proton and deuteron data. Points show the phase differences δ11 and δ01 calculatedfrom ratios of amplitudes given in Tabs. 2 and 3 after averaging over −t′ bins. Inner error bars show the statistical uncertaintyand the outer ones show the statistical and systematic uncertainties added in quadrature. The fitted parameterization is givenby Eqs. (70) and (78) respectively for δ11 and δ01. The parameters of the curves are given in Tabs. 4 and 6 for combined protonand deuteron data. The central lines are calculated with the fitted values of the parameters, while the dashed lines correspondto one standard deviation in the uncertainty of the curve parameter.

larger values of −t′, caused by a negative real part in E .The dash-dotted curve arises from an alternative GPD ap-proach [34], in which the imaginary part of H becomesnegative while the real part of E remains positive at largervalues of −t′.

An attempt to evaluate the complete set of Fourier am-

plitudes (7), and in particular the value of Asin(φ−φS)UT," , is

presented in [17]. In this model, the GPDs are calculatedin a similar way as in the models [15, 35], except that theexperimental value of the pion form factor Fπ is used. Herea large non-pole contribution from E over-compensates thepion-pole contribution leading to the zero-crossing behav-ior of the amplitude as a function of −t′ (see dashed curvein Fig. 3). This model appears to be qualitatively in agree-ment with the data. However, within the large experimen-

tal uncertainty Asin(φ−φS)UT," is also consistent with zero. A

vanishing Fourier amplitude in this model implies the dom-inance (due to the pion pole) of E over H at low −t′. Thisis in agreement with the recent Hermes measurement ofthe exclusive π+ cross section [22], which is well describedat −t′ = 0.1 GeV2 by a GPD model [35] based only on Ewhile neglecting the contribution of H .

In summary, the Fourier amplitudes of the single-spinazimuthal asymmetry are measured in exclusive electro-production of π+ mesons on transversely polarized pro-tons, for the first time. Within the experimental uncer-tainties the amplitude of the sin(φ − φS) modulation isfound to be consistent with zero, thus excluding a purepion-pole contribution to the GPD E in leading-twist cal-culations. This could also be an indication for the dom-inance of E over the GPD H at low −t′. The observedamplitude of the sinφS modulation is large and positivewhich implies the presence of a sizeable interference be-tween contributions from longitudinal and transverse vir-tual photons. A next-to-leading twist calculation as wellas knowledge of the contributions from transverse pho-

tons and their interference with longitudinal photons arerequired for a description of the measurements.

Meson Data

Throughout the majority of exclusive physics data from HERMES we see that there is very little difference between protons and deuterons!!!

Conclusions

• DVCS can be used to access information on Generalised Parton Distributions

• That information can tell us unique things about nucleon structure

• HERMES has the most diverse DVCS measurements of any experiment.

Conclusions

• There is still no clear idea about how the nuclear medium modifies GPD-dependent behaviour.

• Already, GPDs can be constrained - but there is much left to do!

• DVCS and DVMP both seem to show that there is little difference between proton and deuteron data!!!
