We develop a field-theoretic model for the description of proton Compton scattering in which the proton and its excited state, the \Delta+ resonance, are described as part of one multiplet with a single Rarita-Schwinger wavefunction. In…
We argue that at moderately large momentum transfer -t <10 GeV^2, hadronic form factors and wide-angle Compton scattering amplitudes are dominated by mechanism corresponding to overlap of soft wave functions. We show that the soft…
We show how quark-hadron duality can emerge for valence spin averaged structure functions, and for the non-forward distributions of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering. Novel factorisations of the non-forward amplitudes are proposed. Some…
