Wide Angle Compton Scattering

چکیده
We present the handbag contribution to Wide Angle Compton Scattering (WACS) at moderately large momentum transfer obtained with a proton distribution amplitude close to the asymptotic form. In comparison it is found to be significantly larger than results from the hard scattering (pQCD) approach.

A Modern View of Wide-angle Exclusive Scattering
The basic theoretical ideas of the handbag mechanism for wide-angle exclusive scattering reactions are discussed and, with regard to the present experimental program carried out at JLab, its application to Compton scattering is reviewed in some detail. Results for other wide-angle reactions such as two-photon annihilations into pairs of hadrons or virtual Compton scattering are presented as well.
متن کامل1 Compton Scattering of a Twisted Light 2
The variation of photonic orbital angular momentum at Compton scattering is 7 characterized. We determine scattering matrix of a twisted light based on the fundamental 8 conservation of orbital angular momenta. Numerical values for two different twisted light modes: 9 Laguerre Gaussian and Bessel Gaussian, are generated and illustrated. Our analysis indicate that 10 states of photonic orbital a...

The overlap representation of skewed parton distributions (SPDs) is discussed and applications to wide-angle Compton scattering and electroproduction of mesons are presented. The amplitudes for these processes factorise into parton-level subprocess amplitudes and form factors representing 1/x-moments of SPDs. Key-words: skewed parton distributions, wide-angle exclusive reactions Invited talk pr...
متن کاملPerturbative and Non-Perturbative QCD Corrections to Wide-Angle Compton Scattering
We investigate corrections to the handbag approach for wide-angle Compton scattering off protons at moderately large momentum transfer: the photon-parton subprocess is calculated to next-to-leading order in αs and contributions from the generalized parton distribution E are taken into account. Photon and proton helicity flip amplitudes are non-zero due to these corrections which leads to a weal...
متن کاملReal Compton Scattering at High P ⊥
Compton scattering (γ+p → γ+p) in the hard scattering limit is a potentially powerful probe of the short-distance structure of the nucleon. It is a natural complement to high Q exclusive reactions, such as elastic form factors and deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS), where the common feature is a hard energy scale, leading to a factorization of the transition amplitude into a part involvin...
