Qcd Sum Rule and Perturbative Qcd Approaches to Pion Compton Scattering
نویسنده
چکیده
We compare two approaches to the description of pion Compton scattering at moderate momentum transfer, one being based on local duality QCD sum rules for the invariant amplitudes of the process, which have been derived recently, and the other on the modified factorization formula with Sudakov effects included. We find that perturbative QCD predictions are dominant over those from QCD sum rules only for the scattering angle greater than 90.

Exclusive Processes at Intermediate Energy, Quark-hadron Duality and the Transition to Perturbative Qcd
Experiments at CEBAF will scan the intermediate-energy region of the QCD dynamics for the nucleon form factors and for Compton Scattering. These experiments will definitely clarify the role of resummed perturbation theory and of quark-hadron duality (QCD sum rules) in this regime. With this perspective in mind, we review the factorization theorem of perturbative QCD for exclusive processes at i...
متن کاملThe Transition to Perturbative QCD in Compton Scattering
We investigate the transition to perturbative QCD in Compton processes, by concentrating on the specific reactions πγ → πγ and pion photoproduction at moderate energy scales. New sum rules for each of the helicities involved in the scattering and the cross section are given, together with a detailed stability analysis. Our results are then compared with those derived from higher-power factoriza...

We extend previous work on sum rules for the invariant amplitudes of pion Compton scattering by deriving a complete lowest order perturbative spectral function and its leading non perturbative power corrections-for a specific combination of the two helicities (H 1 + H 2) of this process. Using some properties of a modified version of the Borel transform, we develop a method of calculation of th...
متن کاملQcd Sum Rules and Compton Scattering
We extend QCD sum rule analysis to moderate energy fixed angle Compton scattering. In this kinematic region there is a strong similarity to the sum rule treatment of electromagnetic form factors, although the four-point amplitude requires a modification of the Borel transform. To illustrate our method, we derive the sum rules for helicity amplitudes in pion Compton scattering and estimate their...
متن کاملRiken-bnl Preprint Long–range Interactions of Small Color Dipoles
We study the scattering of small color dipoles (e.g., heavy quarkonium states) at low energies. We find that even though the couplings of color dipoles to the gluon field can be described in perturbation theory, at large distances the interaction becomes totally non–perturbative. The structure of the scattering amplitude, however, is fixed by the (broken) chiral and scale symmetries of QCD; the...
