Two-Photon Physics in Hadronic Processes

Abstract: Two-photon exchange contributions to elastic electron-scattering are reviewed. The apparent discrepancy in the extraction of elastic nucleon form factors between unpolarized Rosenbluth and polarization transfer experiments is discussed, as well as the understanding of this puzzle in terms of two-photon exchange corrections. Calculations of such corrections both within partonic and hadronic frameworks are reviewed. In view of recent spin-dependent electron scattering data, the relation of the two-photon exchang… Show more

“…An important application of CS concerns two-photon exchange (TPE) contributions to nucleon form factors. The issue resurfaced after measurements of the proton's form factor ratio µ p G E /G M and its deviation from unity; see [653,654] for reviews. The main problem is visualised in Fig.…”

“…[573] that TPE corrections can indeed generate large corrections to the ratio obtained with the Rosenbluth separation, whereas they would have a minimal impact on the ratio extracted from the polarisation transfer measurements. Explicit TPE calculations were subsequently performed using hadronic approaches including the elastic Born terms [656,657] and inelastic resonance contributions of the CS amplitude [658,659], as well as employing dispersion relations [660][661][662] and perturbative analyses at the quark level based on handbag and perturbative QCD mechanisms [653,[663][664][665][666].…”

“…The difference can be explained when the two photon exchange effect (TPE) [73][74][75][76] is taken into account (for review see [77]). Hence, a proper fit of the EM form-factors requires to take into account the TPE correction [37].…”
