Abstract:
We present fixed- subtracted dispersion relations for Compton scattering off the nucleon at energies 500 MeV, as a formalism to extract the nucleon polarizabilities with a minimum of model dependence. The subtracted dispersion integrals are mainly saturated by intermediate states in the -channel and intermediate states in the -channel . For the subprocess , we construct a unitarized amplitude and find a good description of the available data. We show results for Compton scattering using the subtracted dispersion relations and display the sensitivity on the scalar polarizability difference and the backward spin polarizability , which enter directly as fit parameters in the present formalism.- photon nucleon: elastic scattering
