On the Compton Scattering in String Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

We explicitly compute the Compton amplitude for the scattering of a photon and a (massless) ``electron/positron'' at tree level and one loop, in a four-dimensional fermionic heterotic string model. We comment on the relationship between the amplitudes we compute in string theory and the corresponding ones in field theory.
