In this paper we consider the inverse electromagnetic scattering for a cavity surrounded by an inhomogeneous medium in three dimensions. The measurements are scattered wave fields measured on some surface inside the cavity, where such…
We study the space and properties of global and local observables for radiation emitted in the scattering of a massive scalar field in gauge and gravitational plane-wave backgrounds, in both the quantum and classical theory. We first…
Nonlinear Compton scattering is calculated for the collision of an electron with a plane wave pulse. A mid infra-red (IR) peak arises in the photon spectrum due to long-range interference associated with the pulse envelope. The case of a…
We discuss the target and beam normal spin asymmetries in elastic electron-nucleon scattering which depend on the imaginary part of two-photon exchange processes between electron and nucleon. We express this imaginary part as a phase space…
