Polarisation asymmetries are measured for the hard exclusive leptoproduction of real photons from a longitudinally polarised hydrogen target. These asymmetries arise from the deeply virtual Compton scattering and Bethe-Heitler processes. From the data are extracted two asymmetries in the azimuthal distribution of produced real photons about the direction of the exchanged virtual photon: A_UL with respect to the target polarisation and A_LL with respect to the product of the beam and target polarisations. Results for both asymmetries are compared to the predictions from a generalised parton distribution model. The sin(phi) and cos(0*phi) amplitudes observed respectively for the A_UL and A_LL asymmetries are compatible with the sizeable predictions from the model. Unexpectedly, a sin(2*phi) modulation in the A_UL asymmetry with a magnitude similar to that of the sin(phi) modulation is observed.

Exclusive production of $omega$ mesons was studied at the COMPASS experiment by scattering $160~mathrm{GeV}/mathit{c}$ muons off transversely polarised protons. Five single-spin and three double-spin azimuthal asymmetries were measured in the range o
f photon virtuality $1~(mathrm{GeV}/mathit{c})^2 < Q^2 < 10~(mathrm{GeV}/mathit{c})^2$, Bjorken scaling variable $0.003 < x_{mathit{Bj}} < 0.3$ and transverse momentum squared of the $omega$ meson $0.05~(mathrm{GeV}/mathit{c})^2 < p_{T}^{2} < 0.5~(mathrm{GeV}/mathit{c})^2$. The measured asymmetries are sensitive to the nucleon helicity-flip Generalised Parton Distributions (GPD) $E$ that are related to the orbital angular momentum of quarks, the chiral-odd GPDs $H_{T}$ that are related to the transversity Parton Distribution Functions, and the sign of the $piomega$ transition form factor. The results are compared to recent calculations of a GPD-based model.
The transverse target spin azimuthal asymmetry A_UT in hard exclusive production of rho^0 mesons was measured at COMPASS by scattering 160 GeV/c muons off transversely polarised protons and deuterons. The measured asymmetry is sensitive to the nucleo
n helicity-flip generalised parton distributions E^q, which are related to the orbital angular momentum of quarks in the nucleon. The Q^2, x_B and p_t^2 dependence of A_UT is presented in a wide kinematic range. Results for deuterons are obtained for the first time. The measured asymmetry is small in the whole kinematic range for both protons and deuterons, which is consistent with the theoretical interpretation that contributions from GPDs E^u and E^d approximately cancel.
We report on a measurement of hard exclusive $pi^0$ muoproduction on the proton by COMPASS using 160 GeV/$c$ polarised $mu^+$ and $mu^-$ beams of the CERN SPS impinging on a liquid hydrogen target. From the average of the measured $mu^+$ and $mu^-$ c
ross sections, the virtual-photon proton cross section is determined as a function of the squared four-momentum transfer between initial and final proton in the range $0.08,(text{GeV/}c)^2 < |t| < 0.64,(text{GeV/}c)^2$. The average kinematics of the measurement are $langle Q^2 rangle =2.0; {(text{GeV}/c)^2}$, $langle u rangle = 12.8; {text{GeV}}$, $langle x_{Bj} rangle = 0.093 $ and $langle -t rangle = 0.256; {(text{GeV}/c)^2} $. Fitting the azimuthal dependence reveals a combined contribution by transversely and longitudinally polarised photons of $(8.1 pm 0.9_{text{stat}}{}_{- 1.0}^{+ 1.1}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$, as well as transverse-transverse and longitudinal-transverse interference contributions of $(-6.0 pm 1.3_{text{stat}}{}_{- 0.7}^{+ 0.7}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$ and $(1.4 pm 0.5_{text{stat}}{}_{- 0.2}^{+ 0.3}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$, respectively. Our results provide important input for modelling Generalised Parton Distributions. In the context of the phenomenological Goloskokov-Kroll model, the statistically significant transverse-transverse interference contribution constitutes clear experimental evidence for the chiral-odd GPD $overline{E}_T$.
Azimuthal asymmetries in exclusive electroproduction of a real photon from a longitudinally polarized deuterium target are measured with respect to target polarization alone and with respect to target polarization combined with beam helicity and/or b
eam charge. The asymmetries appear in the distribution of the real photons in the azimuthal angle $phi$ around the virtual photon direction, relative to the lepton scattering plane. The asymmetries arise from the deeply virtual Compton scattering process and its interference with the Bethe-Heitler process. The results for the beam-charge and beam-helicity asymmetries from a tensor polarized deuterium target with vanishing vector polarization are shown to be compatible with those from an unpolarized deuterium target, which is expected for incoherent scattering dominant at larger momentum transfer. Furthermore, the results for the single target-spin asymmetry and for the double-spin asymmetry are found to be compatible with the corresponding asymmetries previously measured on a hydrogen target. For coherent scattering on the deuteron at small momentum transfer to the target, these findings imply that the tensor contribution to the cross section is small. Furthermore, the tensor asymmetry is found to be compatible with zero.
Single hadron azimuthal asymmetries of positive and negative hadrons produced in muon semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering off longitudinally polarised deuterons are determined using the 2006 COMPASS data and also combined all deuteron COMPASS da
ta. For each hadron charge, the dependence of the azimuthal asymmetry on the hadron azimuthal angle $phi$ is obtained by means of a five-parameter fitting function that besides a $phi$-independent term includes four modulations predicted by theory: $sinphi$, $sin 2 phi$, $sin 3phi$ and $cosphi$. The amplitudes of the five terms have been extracted, first, for the hadrons in the whole available kinematic region. In further fits, performed for hadrons from a restricted kinematic region, the $phi$-dependence is determined as a function of one of three variables (Bjorken-$x$, fractional energy of virtual photon taken by the outgoing hadron and hadron transverse momentum), while disregarding the others. Except the $phi$-independent term, all the modulation amplitudes are very small, and no clear kinematic dependence could be observed within experimental uncertainties.
