GPD and DVCS (at leading order:) Beam or target spin asymmetry contain only ImT, therefore GPDs at x = x and -x Cross-section measurement and beam charge asymmetry (ReT) integrate GPDs over x

Procedure tested by Monte-Carlo Procedure is working on real data; extraction of HIm and HReat JLab (cross sections) and HERMES (asymmetries) energies Relatively large uncertainties on extracted CFFs (due to lack of observables -and precision on data-) Introducing more theoretical input will reduce uncertainties (but model dependency) Large flow of new observables and data expected soon; will bring much more experimental constraints to extract CFFs with minimum theoretical input First CFFs model independent fits (leading-twist/leading order approximation); “Minimal theoretical input”
