Beam-target double-spin asymmetries and target single-spin asymmetries were measured for the exclusive $pi^+$ electroproduction reaction $gamma^* p to n pi^+$. The results were obtained from scattering of 6 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons off longitudinally polarized protons using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. The kinematic range covered is $1.1<W<3$ GeV and $1<Q^2<6$ GeV$^2$. Results were obtained for about 6000 bins in $W$, $Q^2$, $cos(theta^*)$, and $phi^*$. Except at forward angles, very large target-spin asymmetries are observed over the entire $W$ region. Reasonable agreement is found with phenomenological fits to previous data for $W<1.6$ GeV, but very large differences are seen at higher values of $W$. A GPD-based model is in poor agreement with the data. When combined with cross section measurements, the present results provide powerful constraints on nucleon resonance amplitudes at moderate and large values of $Q^2$, for resonances with masses as high as 2.4 GeV.

Beam-target double-spin asymmetries and target single-spin asymmetries were measured for the exclusive $pi^0$ electroproduction reaction $gamma^* p to p pi^0$, expanding an analysis of the $gamma^* p to n pi^+$ reaction from the same experiment. The
results were obtained from scattering of 6 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons off longitudinally polarized protons using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. The kinematic range covered is $1.1<W<3$ GeV and $1<Q^2<6$ GeV$^2$. Results were obtained for about 5700 bins in $W$, $Q^2$, cthcm, and $phi^*$. The beam-target asymmetries were found to generally be greater than zero, with relatively modest phicmsp dependence. The target asymmetries exhibit very strong phicmsp dependence, with a change in sign occurring between results at low $W$ and high $W$, in contrast to $pi^+$ electroproduction. Reasonable agreement is found with phenomenological fits to previous data for $W<1.6$ GeV, but significant differences are seen at higher $W$. When combined with cross section measurements, as well as $pi^+$ observables, the present results will provide powerful constraints on nucleon resonance amplitudes at moderate and large values of $Q^2$, for resonances with masses as high as 2.4 GeV.
Beam-target double spin asymmetries and target single-spin asymmetries in exclusive $pi^+$ and $pi^-$ electroproduction were obtained from scattering of 1.6 to 5.7 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from longitudinally polarized protons (for $pi^
+$) and deuterons (for $pi^-$) using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. The kinematic range covered is $1.1<W<2.6$ GeV and $0.05<Q^2<5$ GeV$^2$, with good anglular coverage in the forward hemisphere. The asymmetry results were divided into approximately 40,000 kinematic bins for $pi^+$ from free protons and 15,000 bins for $pi^-$ production from bound nucleons in the deuteron. The present results are found to be in reasonable agreement with fits to previous world data for $W<1.7$ GeV and $Q^2<0.5$ GeV$^2$, with discrepancies increasing at higher values of $Q^2$, especially for $W>1.5$ GeV. Very large target-spin asymmetries are observed for $W>1.6$ GeV. When combined with cross section measurements, the present results will provide powerful constraints on nucleon resonance amplitudes at moderate and large values of $Q^2$, for resonances with masses as high as 2.3 GeV.
The observation of beam spin asymmetries in two-pion production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering off an unpolarized proton target is reported. The data presented here were taken in the fall of 2018 with the CLAS12 spectrometer using a 10.6
GeV longitudinally spin-polarized electron beam delivered by CEBAF at JLab. The measured asymmetries provide the first opportunity to extract the parton distribution function $e(x)$, which provides information about the interaction between gluons and quarks, in a collinear framework that offers cleaner access than previous measurements. The asymmetries also constitute the first ever signal sensitive to the helicity-dependent two-pion fragmentation function $G_1^perp$. A clear sign change is observed around the $rho$ mass that appears in model calculations and is indicative of the dependence of the produced pions on the helicity of the fragmenting quark.
The exclusive electroproduction process $ep rightarrow eppi^{0}$ was measured in the range of photon virtualities $Q^{2} = 0.4 - 1.0$~GeV$^{2}$ and the invariant mass range of the $ppi^{0}$ system of $W = 1.1 - 1.8$~GeV. These kinematics are covered
in exclusive $pi^{0}$ electroproduction off the proton with nearly complete angular coverage in the $ppi^{0}$ center-of-mass system and with high statistical accuracy. Nearly 36000 cross section points were measured, and the structure functions $sigma_T+epsilonsigma_L$, $sigma_{LT}$, and $sigma_{TT}$, were extracted via fitting the $phi_{pi^{0}}$ dependence of the cross section. A Legendre polynomial expansion analysis demonstrates the sensitivity of our data to high-lying $N^*$ and $Delta^{*}$ resonances with $M~>~1.6$ GeV. As part of a broad effort to determine the electrocouplings of the $N^{*}$ and $Delta^{*}$ resonances using both single- and double-pion electroproduction, this dataset is crucial for the reliable extraction of the high-lying resonance electrocouplings from the combined isospin analysis of the $N pi$ and $pi^{+}pi^{-} p$ channels.
The exclusive electroproduction process $vec{e}p to e^prime n pi^+$ was measured in the range of the photon virtuality $Q^2 = 1.7 - 4.5 rm{GeV^2}$, and the invariant mass range for the $npi^+$ system of $W = 1.15 - 1.7 rm{GeV}$ using the CEBAF Large
Acceptance Spectrometer. For the first time, these kinematics are probed in exclusive $pi^+$ production from protons with nearly full coverage in the azimuthal and polar angles of the $npi^+$ center-of-mass system. The $npi^+$ channel has particular sensitivity to the isospin 1/2 excited nucleon states, and together with the $ppi^0$ final state will serve to determine the transition form factors of a large number of resonances. The largest discrepancy between these results and present modes was seen in the $sigma_{LT}$ structure function. In this experiment, 31,295 cross section and 4,184 asymmetry data points were measured. Because of the large volume of data, only a reduced set of structure functions and Legendre polynomial moments can be presented that are obtained in model-independent fits to the differential cross sections.
