We review various applications of dispersion relations (DRs) to the electromagnetic structure
of hadrons. We discuss the way DRs allow one to extract information about hadron structure …

Interpreting measurements requires a physical theory, but the theory's accuracy may vary
across the experimental domain. To optimize experimental design, and so to ensure that the …

Conventional hadron interpolating fields, which utilize gauge-covariant Gaussian smearing,
are ineffective in isolating ground state nucleons in a uniform background magnetic field …

A workshop on The Next Generation Gamma-Ray Source sponsored by the Office of
Nuclear Physics at the Department of Energy, was held November 17-19, 2016 in Bethesda …

We perform a fit of the real Compton scattering (RCS) data below pion-production threshold
to extract the electric (α E1) and magnetic (β M1) static scalar dipole polarizabilities of the …

Differential cross sections for Compton scattering from the proton have been measured at
scattering angles of 55°, 90°, and 125° in the laboratory frame using quasimonoenergetic …

We performed the first simultaneous extraction of the six leading-order proton
polarizabilities. We reached this milestone thanks to both new high-quality experimental …

I give a summary of recent results on nucleon polarizabilities, with emphasis on chiral
perturbation theory. The predictive calculations of Compton scattering off the nucleon are …

We present an analysis of 13 observables in Compton scattering on the proton. Cross
sections, asymmetries with polarised beam and/or targets, and polarisation-transfer …

Low-energy Compton scattering off the proton is used as an experimental tool for
determination of the proton polarizabilities. However, the present empirical determinations …
