Description
A rich variety of phenomena in the Standard Model and its extensions manifest in long-range processes involving hadrons. These are processes where intermediate hadronic states propagate over a long distance, between electroweak interactions (or new-physics), e.g. deeply virtual Compton scattering. Such processes are at the cusp of what can be systematically studied thanks to significant progress in overcoming two challenges. First, these reactions involve hadrons, and as a result, one must use a non-perturbative tool like lattice QCD. Second, lattice QCD is defined in a finite, Euclidean spacetime. In this talk, I explain how these issues can all be resolved systematically for a large kinematic region.
