Probing nucleons with photons at the quark level

Nuclear Theory 2014-04-17 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

The description of electromagnetic interactions with hadrons from the quark level requires knowledge of the underlying quark-gluon ingredients. I discuss some properties of the quark-photon vertex and quark Compton vertex, along with the role of electromagnetic gauge invariance and vector-meson dominance. A simple parametrization for the quark-photon vertex is given.
