Break-up and Coherent Photoproduction ofηMesons on the Deuteron
1997
We present new break-up and coherent data for $\ensuremath{\eta}$ meson photoproduction on the deuteron, using a deuterium target and tagged bremsstrahlung photons up to 1 GeV. The differential cross sections for the coherent process were measured from threshold to 800 MeV. They are much smaller than those previously reported. The break-up channel provides a direct measurement of the neutron to proton differential cross section ratios. At the ${S}_{11}(1535)$ resonance peak, ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{n}/{\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{p}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0.68\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.06$ leading to an isoscalar to isovector amplitude ratio of ${A}_{s}{/A}_{\ensurem…
Quasi-free Compton Scattering and the Polarizabilities of the Neutron
2002
Differential cross sections for quasi-free Compton scattering from the proton and neutron bound in the deuteron have been measured using the Glasgow/Mainz tagging spectrometer at the Mainz MAMI accelerator together with the Mainz 48 cm $\oslash$ $\times$ 64 cm NaI(Tl) photon detector and the G\"ottingen SENECA recoil detector. The data cover photon energies ranging from 200 MeV to 400 MeV at $\theta^{LAB}_\gamma=136.2^\circ$. Liquid deuterium and hydrogen targets allowed direct comparison of free and quasi-free scattering from the proton. The neutron detection efficiency of the SENECA detector was measured via the reaction $p(\gamma,\pi^+ n)$. The "free" proton Compton scattering cross sect…
Enhancement of the linear polarization of coherent bremsstrahlung by collimation of the photon beam
1998
A method is described to precisely predict the relative intensities and degrees of linear polarization of coherent bremsstrahlung from diamond crystals, taking into account the collimation of the photon beam and the lateral distribution and angular divergence of the electron beam in addition to the properties of the crystal. It is confirmed that the increase of the degree of linear polarization through collimation of the photon beam is a sizable effect. Compared to previous approaches considerable progress has been made in reproducing the experimentally observed relative intensities of collimated coherent bremsstrahlung, by taking into account the angular distribution of coherent bremsstrah…
Neutron polarizabilities investigated by quasi-free Compton scattering from the deuteron

Beam Asymmetry of Coherentπ° Photoproduction on4Hein theΔ(1232) Range Measured using Coherent Bremsstrahlung
1997
Using coherent bremsstrahlung at MAMI (Mainz), the beam asymmetry of the differential cross sections for coherent $\ensuremath{\pi}\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$ photoproduction on ${}^{4}\mathrm{He}$ has been measured in the energy interval from 200 to 500 MeV at an angle of ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{lab}}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}37\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$. The coherent ( $\ensuremath{\gamma},\ensuremath{\pi}\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$) reaction is used as a precise linear polarimeter for the first time. Agreement with predictions has been obtained on a $\ensuremath{\gtrsim}3%$ level of precision.
Backward spin polarizabilityγπof the proton
2002
Using the Mainz $48\mathrm{cm}\ensuremath{\emptyset}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}64\mathrm{cm}$ NaI(Tl) detector and the segmented G\"ottingen recoil detector SENECA in coincidence, Compton scattering by the proton at ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\mathrm{lab}}=136\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$ has been measured at MAMI (Mainz) in the energy range from 200 to 470 MeV. The new data confirm the previous observation that there is a systematic discrepancy between MAMI and LEGS (Brookhaven) data leading to different spin polarizabilities ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}=\ensuremath{-}38.7\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.8$ and $\ensuremath{-}27.2\ifmmode\pm\else\…
Angular and polarization dependence of Compton scattering from in the Δ-resonance region
1998
Abstract Using linearly polarized tagged photons from coherent bremsstrahlung, differential cross sections and beam asymmetries for Compton scattering by 4 He have been measured at MAMI in the energy interval between 150 MeV and 500 MeV for scattering angles of θ γ lab =37°, 93° and 137°, thus largely increasing the available data base. Improved calculations in terms of the Δ -hole model completely fail to describe the data at large scattering angles. The same proved to be true for a schematic model, even after taking into account properties of nuclear photo-absorption in very detail.
Compton scattering from the free and bound proton above π-threshold
2000
The differential cross sections for Compton scattering from the proton have been measured at MAMI with three different detector setups. There is a good agreement among all the results. The theoretical calculation based on dispersion relations shows that there is no drastic change necessary in the parameters of this approach.
