Аннотация:The beam-spin asymmetries in the hard exclusive electroproduction of photons on the proton (e(->)p -> ep gamma) were measured over a wide kinematic range and with high statistical accuracy. These asymmetries result from the interference of the Bethe-Heitler process and of deeply virtual Compton scattering. Over the whole kinematic range (x(B) from 0.11 to 0.58, Q(2) from 1 to 4.8 GeV(2), -t from 0.09 to 1.8 GeV(2)), the azimuthal dependence of the asymmetries is compatible with expectations from leading-twist dominance, A similar or equal to a sin phi/(1+c cos phi). This extensive set of data can thus be used to constrain significantly the generalized parton distributions of the nucleon in the valence quark sector.
