Insight into emergence of hadron mass from N * electroexcitation amplitudes
The emergence of hadron mass represents one of the most challenging and still open problems in contemporary hadron physics. The results on the nucleon resonance electroexcitation amplitudes available from the CLAS data on πN and π + π – p electroproduction analyzed within the continuum Schwinger method open up a new avenue for gaining insight into the strong interaction dynamics that are responsible for the generation of the dominant part of hadron mass. Future prospects of these studies in experiments of the 12 GeV era with CLAS12 and after a potential increase of the CEBAF energy up to 22 GeV will offer a unique opportunity to explore the full range of distances where the dominant part of hadron mass and N* structure emerge from QCD.
