Low Energy Compton Scattering and Nucleon Structure

Abstract

The low energy virtual Compton scattering process eN e'Nγ offers a new and potentially high resolution window on nucleon sturcture via measurement of so-called generalized polarizabilities (GPs). We present calculations of GPs within heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory and discuss present experimental efforts.
