Compton Scattering
In the early 20th century, research into the interaction of X-rays with matter was an emerging field. It was observed that when a beam of X-rays is directed at an atom, an electron is ejected and the light is scattered through an angle θ, as illustrated below. Classical electromagnetism predicts that the wavelength of scattered rays should be equal to the initial wavelength; however, experiment...
متن کاملDeeply-virtual Compton Scattering
We study in QCD the physics of deeply-virtual Compton scattering (DVCS)—the virtual Compton process in the large s and small t kinematic region. We show that DVCS can probe a new type of off-forward parton distributions. We derive an Altarelli-Parisi type of evolution equations for these distributions. We also derive their sum rules in terms of nucleon form-factors of the twist-two quark and gl...
متن کاملNeutron Compton Scattering
Neutron Compton scattering measurements have the potential to provide direct information about atomic momentum distributions and adia-batic energy surfaces in condensed matter. First applied to measuring the condensate fraction in superfluid helium, the technique has recently been extended to study a variety of classical and quantum liquids and solids. This article reviews the theoretical backg...
متن کاملInverse Compton Scattering – Revisited
An important radiative process, used in several astrophysical contexts to generate high energy photons, is the inverse compton scattering. In this process, relativistic electrons transfer part of their kinetic energy to low energy photons thereby creating high energy photons. Conventional text book derivation (Rybicki & Lightman 1979) of this process uses the photon picture, kinematics of elect...
متن کاملDeeply Virtual Compton Scattering
We propose to measure the Beam Spin Asymmetry (BSA) in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) off 4He. The measurements will use a 6 GeV polarized electron beam, a 4He pressurized gas target, the CLAS and the BoNuS RTPC detectors. The major goal of this proposal is to perform the first fully quantitative investigation of the DVCS reaction off a nuclear target in the coherent and incoherent ch...
