چکیده

We examine manifestations of neutron electromagnetic polarizabilities in coherent Compton scattering from the helium-3 nucleus. We calculate gamma3He elastic scattering observables using chiral perturbation theory to next-to-leading order [O(e2Q)]. We find that the unpolarized differential cross section can be used to measure neutron electric and magnetic polarizabilities, while two double-polarization observables are sensitive to different linear combinations of the four neutron spin polarizabilities.

Studies on the electromagnetic structure of the nucleon by free and quasi-free Compton scattering at MAMI (Mainz)

Using hydrogen and deuterium targets, Compton scattering by the proton and neutron have been studied at the tagged photon beam of the MAMI (Mainz) accelerator using different experimental setups. The theoretical tools for the analysis of the experimental data have been investigated, as there are the nonsubtracted dispersion theory and the theory of quasi-free reactions on the proton and neutron...

Measurement of Compton scattering from the deuteron and an improved extraction of the neutron electromagnetic polarizabilities.

The electromagnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon are fundamental properties that describe its response to external electric and magnetic fields. They can be extracted from Compton-scattering data-and have been, with good accuracy, in the case of the proton. In contradistinction, information for the neutron requires the use of Compton scattering from nuclear targets. Here, we report a new mea...

Neutron Spin Sum Rules and Spin Polarizabilities at Low Q2

izabilities have been formed. These proceedings will concentrate on recent measurments on the neutron via a polarized 3He target in the low Q2 region. In particular, experiment E97-110 was performed in Hall A to study the neutron and 3He spin structure at four-momentum transfers between 0.02 and 0.3 GeV2. This Q2 range allows us to make a benchmark-check of Chiral Perturbation Theory calculatio...

Deuteron 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...
