Zhang Chen1, ? 1Department of Physics, Manhattanville College, Purchase, NY 10577, USA (Dated: February 2, 2008) Abstract We give a brief overview of the General Parton Distributions(GPDs), including their properties, connections to conventional quantities, and relationships to physical observables. We also perform a systematic analysis on the non-forward matrix elements of twist-two quark and gluon helicity-flip operators and explain their relationships to the GPDs. We systematically count the number of independent nucleon form factors in non-forward scattering (of matrix elements of these operators), by matching the allowed quantum numbers with their crossing channel counterparts and time reversal symmetry considerations [1] (a method developed in [2]). We finally analyze and write down the form factor expansion of the quark operator matrix elements. PACS numbers: 11.80.Cr, 11.30.Er, 11.40.-q, 14.20.Dh, 13.60.-r ?

INTRODUCTION One of the most important frontiers in strong interaction physics is the study of the structure of the nucleon. Many unanswered questions still exist due to the non-perturbative nature of the bound state problem in Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD). However, recent theoretical and experimental efforts on the so-called General Parton Distributions (GPDs) have shed new light on the problem, especially on the possibilities of a three-dimensional view and a complete description of the nucleon (eg, see [3, 4, 5] and many others). The GPDs generalize and interpolate between the ordinary Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) and elastic form factors–both having been studied extensively for many years–and therefore contain rich structural information. They can be acce
