Abstract:A theoretical method to calculate Delbrück scattering amplitudes for photon energies above the electron‐positron () pair production threshold is presented. The method is based on the application of the relativistic Dirac–Coulomb Green function and describes the interaction of the virtual pair with the Coulomb field of a target to all orders in the coupling strength parameter . To illustrate the application of the developed approach, detailed calculations have been performed for the scattering of 2.754 MeV pho… Show more
