Parity Violation in gamma proton Compton Scattering

Abstract

A measurement of parity-violating spin-dependent gamma proton Compton scattering will provide a theoretically clean determination of the parity-violating pion-nucleon coupling constant hπ NN(1). We calculate the leading parity-violating amplitude arising from one-loop pion graphs in chiral perturbation theory. An asymmetry of ~5 10-8 is estimated for Compton scattering of 100 MeV photons.
