•  Includes two experiments: -  study of Generalized Parton Distributions using the Double Deeply Virtual

Compton Scattering (DDVCS) process -  study the nucleon gluonic structure in J/ψ production near threshold region

New LOI for di-muon electroproduction

Detecting time-like photon or a vector meson through their di-muon decay eliminates ambiguity and anti-symmetrization issues for DDVCS, and reduces combinatorial background under the J/ψ peak in the lepton pair invariant mass distribution

GPDs at point with DDVCS By measuring imaginary part of the DDVCS amplitude, e.g the beam spin asymmetry (BSA), one has access, i.e. in a concise notation:

x

H 2 !" # ",", t( )+H !" 2 #! ,!, t( )!" #

xB2$ xB

; " = !"Q2 + !Q 2

Q2

•  This allows the mapping of GPDs along each of the three axis ( , ξ and t) independently

•  An important restriction is that only the region 0 < 2ξ’ - ξ < ξ can be accessed •  Prediction of the “handbag” formalism is the sign change of BSA in

transitioning from “space-like dominated” to “time-like dominated” regime

GEM tracker •  GEM based tracking detectors have been used in several JLAB experiments,

e.g. Hall-B Bonus, eg6 4He, and Proton Charge Radius experiments •  High rate GEM trackers that can handle up to 1 MHz/cm2 rates are currently

being fabricated for Hall-A SBS spectrometer, and are prototyped for the proposed SoLid device.

•  "disk” design, five tracking detectors, first detector at 40 cm from the target •  polar angular coverage 5o to 35o. Each disc will be divided azimuthaly into six

trapezoidal sections •  2D readout strips, with radial and φ-readout strips to dene polar and

azimuthal angles •  the area of the readout for the strip at 5o 0.18 cm2 (4.5 cm x 0.04cm)

Rates in GEM tracker Scoring plane at 40cm, minimum angle 4.8o – rates in MHz/cm2

•  From studies performed for SBS and SoLid, only 0.5% of photons with E>10 keV will leave signal in GEM

•  Highest rates in the GEM from photons is 70 kHz/cm2

•  Total rates ~600 kHz/cm2

or ~100 kHz/strip for the “hottest” strip

E>10 keV

PbWO4 Calorimeter for electron detection

•  Similar to Inner Calorimeter, total of ~1200 modules, mounted at 60 cm from the target

•  Angular coverage from 7o to 30o

•  Small size modules, 1.3x1.3 cm2, in the inner part, 7o to 12o. 2x2 cm2 modules in the outer part

•  Readout with APDs, similar to IC, HPS ECal, and FTCal

•  HPS Ecal modules run successfully at rates of ~1.5 MHz and performed very well: σ/E≈4%/√E and σt≤0.5 ns

Rates PbWO4 Calorimeter •  the whole volume was divided into 1.3x1.3x20 cm3 rectangles (modules) •  Hit in the module was counted if the energy deposition in the PbWO4 crystal

exceeded the threshold energy of 15 MeV.

•  The highest rates are from photons, 2 MHz max

•  Total rates in the innermost modules ~3 MHz

Muon detection and trigger rates •  Muons will punch through the calorimeter and

W-shield and will be detected in CLAS12 FD. •  Muon ID – track in DC with matched MIP

energy cluster in PCAL/EC. •  Based on GEANT4 (GEMC) simulations

background rates from charged tracks (mostly from pions penetrating the shield) in CLAS12 FDC will be 150 kHz and 190 kHz for positively and negatively charged tracks, respectively

•  MIP energy cut in PCAL/EC reduces these rates to 75/95 kHz (from those only 40% are from the target – 30/38 kHz respectively)

•  With 50 ns trigger time coincidence window, the rate of two oppositely charged MIP particles in CLAS12 FD will be 360 HZ – well within CLAS12 DAQ specs (the true muon pair rate is ~1 Hz, mostly from BH)

•  Experiment can run with two charged particle trigger CLAS12 FD

•  The (eµ+µ-) final state will be identified as two oppositely charged MIP in CLAS12 FD paired with "electron" like hit in the PbWO4 calorimeter.

•  Clusters with energy > 0.4 GeV that have negatively charged GEM track pointing to it will be selected as electron candidates

•  The rate of non-electrons with that signature (π-s) is 150 kHz (840 kHz) in the region of interest in W and Q2 (total)

•  The true (inclusive) electron rates for E’>0.5 GeV is ~650 kHz in the acceptance region, so the total rate of clusters with more than 0.4 GeV energy in the calorimeter will be 800 kHz

•  Requiring two tracks in FD from the same beam bucket and from the target reduces two MIP coincidence rate to 5 Hz, only 50% of which have M>1 GeV.

•  The true mion pair rate is 0.6 Hz making total pair rate from the same beam bunch in FD ~3. Hz

•  Accidental rate of (eµµ) will be ~0.01 Hz, with MM cut for recoil proton ID will reduce this rate 0.004 Hz

•  The expected rate for BH/DDVCS events in the kinematics of the experiment is 0.02 Hz

Detector response simulation •  Modified version of the CLAS12 Fast MC

was used to simulate acceptances and resolutions

•  For electron detection a new detector was introduced in fast MC with polar angular coverage of 7o to 30o and 2π azimuthal coverage. Detection energy threshold was set to p > 0.5 GeV/c, energy resolution of σ/E=3.7%/√E and angular resolutions of σθ(φ) = 2 mrad

•  Since muons will be detected in CLAS12 FD after passing through 20 cm long PbWO4 modules and a 30 cm thick tungsten absorber, momentum of muons before CLAS12 acceptance and smearing functions was recalculated to take into account energy loss

23 Summary n  There is a rich experiential program for studying nucleon and nuclear structure

within GPD formalism on CLAS12 using DVCS, DVMP, and TCS n  While these measurements will generate wealth of data on GPDs, information

still will be limited to certain kinematic constraints n  The Double DVCS measurement will extend kinematic region of GPD

determination into a new dimension n  Studying DDVCS requires high luminosity and muon detection n  Proposed modifications to CLAS12 aims to serve two purposes (a) allow to run

at orders of magnitude higher luminosity, and (b) to convert the CLAS12 FD into a muon detector

n  The same experiment is well suited to study J/ψ electroproduciton in uncharted, near threshold region to probe gluonic form factors of the nucleon

n  This modified setup will be an excellent place for very high rate inclusive J/ψ production and opens up a new avenue for studies of J/ψ production on nuclei in order to investigate J/ψ Ν interaction.

n  These studies can also include other vector mesons, e.g. φ(1020) n  To conduct measurements, 100 days at L=1037 cm-2 sec-1 will be needed
