Parity violation inγpCompton scattering

Abstract: Polarized beam ␥ ជ p Compton scattering provides a theoretically clean way to extract the isovector parity violating pion-nucleon coupling constant h NN (1) . This channel is more tractable experimentally than the recently proposed extraction of h NN (1) from the Bedaque-Savage process-polarized target ␥p ជ Compton scattering. The leading parity violating effect is calculated using heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The size of the asymmetry is estimated to be ϳ4ϫ10 Ϫ8 for 120 MeV photon energy.

“…This transition has been investigated in [15,16] also in the context of the HQET but in the same framework using the distribution amplitudes of the à and à b , respectively. Moreover, form factors, branching ratio, and dilepton forward-backward asymmetries are studied in [17][18][19] also within the context of the HQET. In [20][21][22], AE b;c and à b;c to nucleon transitions are also evaluated using the nucleon wave functions in the light cone QCD sum rules approach.…”

“…The contribution of the former originates mainly from the P -odd combination of Compton helicity amplitudes |T 1, | 2 which is non-zero in the presence of both P -and T -violation. The parity-violating asymmetry was first considered in [9] and it is expected to be of order 10 −8 at forward angles. If CP -violation is due to a non-zero QCD θ-term that is very tightly constrained by the experimental limit on EDM, the expected value of the single spin asymmetry in Eq.…”

“…Although this effect is tiny as compared to the parity-violating contribution, by going to very backward angles this latter is highly suppressed due to the cos 4 θ 2 factor in front. It furthermore has a cubic dependence on the photon energy [9]. Another important background is represented by the analyzing power of Compton scattering.…”

“…No measurement of a PV observable in the single-nucleon sector exists; however, PV asymmetries in Compton scattering [30,31] and pion production [32,33], as well as the nucleon anapole moment [34,35,36] have been considered theoretically. The Lagrangian of Eq.…”
