چکیده
The general form of the cross section as well as the polarizations of electron-deuteron elastic scattering are given. Two-photon exchange effects are analyzed. Possible signatures of the two-photon exchange effects in the electron-deuteron elastic scattering are discussed. PACS: 13.40.GP, 25.30.-c, 25.30.Bf, 24.70.+s, 13.60.Fz

Two - Photon Exchange in Electron - Deuteron Scattering
We show that multiple scattering of the electron (i.e., two-photon exchange) in electron-deuteron elastic scattering leads to a small component in the cross section, which decreases very slowly with momentum transfer, and may dominate the cross section at high momentum transfer.
متن کاملRadiative corrections to deep – inelastic ed − scattering
The model–independent radiative corrections to deep–inelastic scattering of unpolarized electron beam off the tensor polarized deuteron target have been considered. The contribution to the radiative corrections due to the hard–photon emission from the elastic electron–deuteron scattering (the so–called elastic radiative tail) is also investigated. The calculation is based on the covariant param...
متن کاملModel Independent Considerations on Two-photon Exchange in Electron Proton Scattering and in the Crossed Processes
The presence of two photon exchange in ep elastic scattering and in the crossed processes (p̄+p ↔ l+l, l = e or μ) is discussed in terms of three complex amplitudes which are functions of two kinematical variables, the momentum transfer squared q and the polarization of the virtual photon, ǫ. Model independent expressions of the differential cross section and of polarization observables are deri...
متن کاملElastic electron–deuteron scattering in chiral effective field theory
We calculate elastic electron–deuteron scattering in a chiral effective field theory approach for few–nucleon systems based on a modified Weinberg power counting. We construct the current operators and the deuteron wave function at next-to-leading order (NLO) simultaneously within a projection formalism. The leading order comprises the impulse approximation of photons coupling to point-like nuc...
متن کاملMeasurement of tensor polarization in elastic electron-deuteron scattering at large momentum transfer
Tensor polarization observables ( t(20), t(21), and t(22)) have been measured in elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer between 0.66 and 1.7 (GeV/c)(2). The experiment was performed at the Jefferson Laboratory in Hall C using the electron High Momentum Spectrometer, a specially designed deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The n...
