Abstract: (Elsevier)
Kinematic effects due to binding have been studied for the electric and magnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon within a nonrelativistic quark model. A specific unitary transformation of the model hamiltonian has been applied to disentangle nucleon and quark degress of freedom. It is shown that the naive guess of a vanishing or modification of the recoil diamagnetism β rec = −〈 D 2 〉/2 M for the bound nucleon is not correct. Instead, the same total magnetic polarizability β is shown to appear for the free and bound nucleon in the energy shift of the nucleon under the action of a static homogeneous magnetic field, as well as in the amplitude of αA scattering. The corresponding result can be formulated as a generalized low-energy theorem for Compton scattering by the bound nucleon. This results agrees also with the findings of a recent αA-scattering experiment carried out to study the polarizability of the bound nucleon. Generalization taking into account higher multipoles and ω-dependent terms in the polarizabilities are also provided.- photon nucleus: Compton scattering
