Probing hadron structure through hard exclusive processes
(Kornelija Passek-Kumerički, IRB, Zagreb)

Hadrons such as protons, neutrons, pions and kaons are made of quarks and gluons, whose interactions are described by quantum chromodynamics. Yet, understanding how these constituents are distributed and how they form bound states remains a major challenge. Hard exclusive processes offer a way to access this internal structure, allowing hadrons to be described in terms of generalized parton distributions (GPDs), which encode a more complete, multidimensional picture of the nucleon. This talk will introduce the basic ideas behind GPDs and show how they are studied in practice through meson production processes, in connection with current experimental data and the future Electron–Ion Collider (EIC).
