Deuteron Compton Scattering in Chiral Perturbation Theory
Abstract
Compton scattering on the deuteron is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory to third order in small momenta, for photon energies of order the pion mass. The scattering amplitude is a sum of one- and two-nucleon mechanisms with no undetermined parameters. Our results are in good agreement with the intermediate energy experimental data, and a comparison is made with the recent higher-energy data obtained at SAL.
