Double DVCS
• Detect dilepton pair instead of real photon
• Allow to vary skewness h of the reaction
• Charged particle in final state can use
spectrometer to measure momentum
( less requirement on calorimeter energy
resolution)
Double DVCS and Virtual Bethe Heitler

• DVCS only probes h = x
line
• Example with model of
GPD H for up quark
• Jlab : Q2>0

• Kinematical range
increases with beam
energy ( larger dilepton
mass )
DDVCS cross section
•VGG model
•Order of
~0.1 pb = 10-36cm2
•Virtual Beth and
Heitler
•Interference term
enhanced by BH
•Contributions from
mesons small when far
from meson mass
DDVCS measurement
• Need high luminosity
– Hall B : 1035- 1036 cm-2s-1
– mEIC : 1.5x 1034 cm-2s-1
– Want 1038cm-2s-1 ideally 1039 cm-2s-1
• Pair detection : clean trigger
• Ideally look at muons channel to avoid ambiguity
with initial electron
( muon source low luminosity )
DDVCS measurement
• Large acceptance to get the whole angular
coverage of the pair
• Forward angle for increase of Bethe and
Heitler interference

Designing a DVCS experiment
Measuring cross-sections differential in 4 variables requires:
 A good knowledge of the acceptance
e p → e (p) g
Scattered electron
The HRS acceptance
is well known
R-function
cut
Emitted photon
The calorimeter has a simple
rectangular acceptance
Perfect acceptance
matching by design !

13x16 PbF2 Calorimeter
39 cm x 48 cm at 110 cm = 154 msrd
Energy resolution about 3%
Centered on Virtual photon
Exclusivity by missing mass technique
detecting photon only
• Limited in luminosity by calorimeter
( background and radiation hardness )
Dimuon detection
• No ambiguity with scattered electron
• Can go through material
– clean trigger
– Less radiation hardness concern
• Charged particles : can use spectrometer ( reduce
background and improved resolution compared to
calorimeter )
• Difficulties
– Minimum ionizing
– Efficiency of detection
– Pion background
0.5 % momentum resolution at 5 GeV
Possible similar setup with SBS
• HRS+SBS
• Pros
– Virtual photon very well defined
– High momentum resolution
– Good vertex resolution
– Good control of acceptance
• Cons
– Small acceptance : need to run at high luminosity

Option with BigBite and SBS
• BigBite as electron arm, same setup as SIDIS :
– Pros
• Larger acceptance
– Cons
• Lower momentum resolution
• Sensitive to background
• Cross sections more difficult because more sensitive of
background

Double DVCS
• Challenges
– Pion muon discrimination
• Record shower profile
– Vertex reconstruction : to reduce background
( might need vertex tracker )
– Need detector without shielding for accurate
momenta and vertex resolution ( GEM ) might limit
luminosity
– First step go for asymmetries
– Need to determine uncertainties on cross section
(tracking and muon detection efficiency )
Muons and pion shower
Muon identification
• Add material to stop other electromagnetic process
• Scintillator planes for muon trigger
• Use sampling calorimeter to look at shower : layers
of material + GEM or Micromegas with pads and
digital readout ( CALICE, SdHCAL, dHCAL )

480 channels for 25 K$ about 100 K$ per
