“…1 The integrated scattered-photon yield was normalized to the number of photons incident on the target and corrected for rate-dependent factors [29] which were due to the physical overlap of the FP counters. This procedure has been systematically verified in measurements of photon scattering from carbon [30,31]. The number of photons incident on the target was determined from the number of post-bremsstrahlung electrons detected in each FP channel, the tagging efficiency, and the ratedependent correction factors.…”

The electromagnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon are fundamental properties that describe its response to external electric and magnetic fields. They can be extracted from Compton-scattering data-and have been, with good accuracy, in the case of the proton. In contradistinction, information for the neutron requires the use of Compton scattering from nuclear targets. Here we report a new measurement of elastic photon scattering from deuterium using quasimonoenergetic tagged photons at the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden. These first new data in more than a decade effectively double the world dataset. Their energy range overlaps with previous experiments and extends it by 20 MeV to higher energies. An analysis using Chiral Effective Field Theory with dynamical ∆(1232) degrees of freedom shows the data are consistent with and within the world dataset. After demonstrating that the fit is consistent with the Baldin sum rule, extracting values for the isoscalar nucleon polarizabilities and combining them with a recent result for the proton, we obtain the neutron polarizabilities as αn = [11.55 ± 1.25(stat) ± 0.2(BSR) ± 0.8(th)] × 10 −4 fm 3 and βn = [3.65 ∓ 1.25(stat) ± 0.2(BSR) ∓ 0.8(th)] × 10 −4 fm 3 , with χ 2 = 45.2 for 44 degrees of freedom.

“…Future LQCD calculations at the physical quark masses will determine whether this effect persists and predict the electromagnetic polarizabilities of the deuteron and other light nuclei in nature. Such calculations will also determine the role of nuclear forces and gauge-invariant electromagnetic two-nucleon operators in the electromagnetic structure of light nuclei, and complement the constraints from upcoming experiments that will extract deuteron polarizabilities at the HIγS facility [510], MAX-Lab at Lund [511], and at MAMI in Mainz [512], as well as next-generation of Compton scattering experiments [513][514][515] that will extend those studies to different nuclear targets.…”

“…The first run period employed an electron-beam energy of 144 MeV; the second run period used 165 MeV. The first week of each period was dedicated to in-beam studies (see below), measurements of 12 C(γ,γ) [33] to establish the absolute normalization and systematics of the setup, and cooling of the liquid-deuterium target. The remaining three weeks were used to perform the measurements on deuterium reported in this article.…”

Differential cross sections for elastic scattering of photons from the deuteron have recently been measured at the Tagged-Photon Facility at the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden. These first new measurements in more than a decade further constrain the isoscalar electromagnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon and provide the first-ever results above 100 MeV, where the sensitivity to the polarizabilities is increased. We add 23 points between 70 and 112 MeV, at angles 60• , 120• and 150• . Analysis of these data using a Chiral Effective Field Theory indicates that the cross sections are both self-consistent and consistent with previous measurements. Extracted values of αs = [12.1 ± 0.8(stat) ± 0.2(BSR) ± 0.8(th)] × 10 −4 fm 3 and βs = [2.4 ± 0.8(stat) ± 0.2(BSR) ± 0.8(th)] × 10 −4 fm 3 are obtained from a fit to these 23 new data points. This paper presents in detail the experimental conditions and the data analysis used to extract the cross sections.
