description

We discuss the limitation of the standard approach to exchange current effects from photonuclear sum rules. We propose to look for an energy-independent contribution to the real part of the forward Compton-scattering amplitude below pion threshold. Experimental data on photonuclear cross-sections are used to calculate the real part of the amplitude, by means of an once-subtracted dispersion relation. The analysis is made for2H,7Li and9Be at energies varying between 50 and 150 MeV. A remarkably stable value ofK=0.60 is extracted for deuterium. For 1p shell nuclei, the main uncertainty is due to the lack of data above 300 MeV.
