Deeply virtual compton scattering in color dipole formalism

In this contribution we summarize recent investigations on the deeply virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) within the color dipole approach. The color dipole cross section is implemented through the phenomenological saturation model. The role played by its QCD evolution and skewedness effects in the DVCS cross section are discussed. The results are compared with the recent H1 and ZEUS Collaborations data. The skewing factor, defined as the ratio of the imaginary parts of the amplitudes ImA(gamma*p ® g* p)/ImA(gamma*p ® gp) can be extracted from ...
