Description
The recent measurements on exclusive backward-angle electroproduction of meson from Jefferson Lab electron-proton fixed-target scattering experiments above the resonance region, hint at a new domain of applicability of QCD factorization in a unique u-channel kinematics regime, known as the nucleon-meson Transition Distribution Amplitude (TDA). Thanks to these pioneering efforts, the interest in studying nucleon structure through u-channel meson production observables has grown significantly. In this presentation, we will explore the u-channel observables from JLab 12 GeV program to the future Electron-Ion Colliders EIC. Hence, to further validate and study the TDA framework to uncover the unexplored characteristics of the nucleon wave function.
