Description
We will discuss our experimental projects for JLab Hall C to measure novel Compton-like reactions (Timelike Compton Scattering TCS, Double Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering DDVCS) in order to improve our knowledge on Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) beyond what is currently accessed from DVCS (Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering). GPDs can lead to interpretation such as tomographic views of the nucleon's content, however, this is assuming we can decorrelate it's kinematic variable dependencies to relate it to actual measurements. This is possible if we can measure DDVCS. Therefore, we are developing a dedicated experiment for this reaction. Since it involves the development of a new muon detector, we will discuss this project as well as the other experimental challenges.
