摘要

In this prize talk,I recall some of the history surrounding the discovery of deeply virtual Compton scattering,and explain why it is an exciting experimental tool to obtain novel tomographic pictures of the nucleons at Jefferson Lab 12 GeV facility and the planned Electron-Ion Collider in the USA.It is certainly a great honor to have received the 2016 Herman Feshbach Prize in theoretical nuclear physics by the American Physical Society.I sincerely thank my colleagues in the Division of Nuclear Physics to recognize the importance of some of the theoretical works I have done in the past,particularly their relevance to the experimental programs around the world.
