DVCS off deuteron and twist three contributions

Abstract

We study the deeply virtual Compton scattering off a spin-one particle, which is exemplified by the case of coherent scattering on a deuteron target. We discuss the role of twist three contributions for restoring the QED gauge invariance of the amplitude corresponding to this process. We consider both kinematical and dynamical sources of twist three generalized parton distributions.
