Chiral and trace anomalies in deeply virtual Compton scattering
Chiral and trace anomalies in deeply virtual Compton scattering
Inspired by recent work by Tarasov and Venugopalan, we calculate the one-loop quark box diagrams relevant to polarized and unpolarized Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) by introducing off-forward momentum $l^\mu$ as an infrared regulator. In the polarized case, we rederive the pole $1/l^2$ related to the axial (chiral) anomaly. In addition, …
