1 99 8 Compton Scattering on the Charged Pion and the Process γγ → π 0 π 0
The Compton scattering on a charged pion and the process γγ → π 0 π 0 are studied using the dispersion relations. Unknown parameters of σ meson and a sum and a difference of the π 0 polarizabilities are found from a fit to the experimental data for γγ → π 0 π 0 process. The found parameters of the σ meson are used for the calculation of the cross section of the elastic γπ ± scattering. The anal...
متن کاملExclusive Vector Meson Production and Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering at HERA ∗
Exclusive vector meson production and deeply virtual Compton scattering are ideally suited reactions for studying the structure of the proton and the transition from soft to hard processes. The main experimental data obtained at HERA are summarised and presented in the light of QCD approaches.

The experimental &?la on vector meson photoproduction and Compton scattering is analyzed by utilizing the dual absorptive model. The s-channel helicity conserving (SIIC) PO~UXOII exchange amplitude in p” and + photo:>ro&uction is found to shrink with s, in the same way as in Fand K-~-nucleon elastic scattering. The small SEX!-violatjng amplitudzs’are al.so studied. The ratio of amplitudes for 1...

Fig. 1. Schematic picture of inelastic (a) and elastic (b) vector meson leptoproduction Vector mesons can be produced in two different ways in lepton proton scattering, in so-called inelastic processes, where the proton breaks, or elastic (exclusive) processes, where the incoming proton stays intact. The different production mechanisms are shown schematically in Fig. 1. They suggest that the cr...
متن کاملDeuteron Compton Scattering and Electromagnetic Polarizabilities of the Nucleon *
Differential cross section of deuteron Compton scattering has been calculated using the Bonn NN-potential, a consistent set of meson-exchange currents and seagulls, and lowest-and higher-order electromagnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon. Estimates of the polarizabilities of the neutron are obtained from recent experimental data. Photon scattering is a powerful tool for probing the structure...
