title = "Transverse target spin asymmetries in exclusive ρ0 muoproduction",
abstract = "Exclusive production of ρ0 mesons was studied at the COMPASS experiment by scattering 160GeV/c muons off transversely polarised protons. Five single-spin and three double-spin azimuthal asymmetries were measured as a function of Q2, x B j, or pT2. The sinφS asymmetry is found to be -0.019 ± 0.008(stat) ± 0.003(syst). All other asymmetries are also found to be of small magnitude and consistent with zero within experimental uncertainties. Very recent calculations using a GPD-based model agree well with the present results. The data is interpreted as evidence for the existence of chiral-odd, transverse generalized parton distributions.",
