We estimate the two-photon exchange contribution to elastic electron-proton scattering at large momentum transfer by using a quark-parton representation of virtual Compton scattering. We thus can relate the two-photon exchange amplitude to…
The low energy scattering of pions is investigated in the presence of electromagnetic interactions at leading order and at next-to-leading order for the amplitudes involving at most one pair of charged pions. The size of the electromagnetic…
It is shown that the amplitude of elastic ed scattering beyond Born approximation contains six generalized form factors, but only three linearly independent combinations of them (generalized charge, quadrupole and magnetic form factors)…
We estimate the two-photon exchange contribution to elastic electron-proton scattering at large momentum transfer through the scattering off a parton in the proton. We relate the process on the nucleon to the generalized parton…
Two-photon events at the LHC are characterized by the protons scattered at very small angles and the particles centrally produced via the photon-photon fusion. To select these events from the huge samples of generic pp interactions a…

This is the first of two papers in which we study real and virtual photon-proton scattering in a nonperturbative framework. We classify different contributions to this process and identify the leading contributions at high energies. We then…
Two-photon exchange contributions to elastic electron-proton scattering cross sections are evaluated in a simple hadronic model including the finite size of the proton. The corrections are found to be small in magnitude, but with a strong…
We show that the scattering interaction between a high energy electron and a photon can be strongly enhanced by different types of localized plasmons in a non-trivial way. The scattering interaction is predicted by an eigen-response theory,…
Two-photon exchange contributions have potentially broad ranging impact on several charged lepton scattering measurements. Previously believed to be extremely small, based in part on comparisons of positron scattering and electron…
In this note we study an interesting effect of low energy gravity on photon-photon scattering at high energies.
We give a general treatment of twist-three effects in two-photon reactions. We address the issue of the gauge invariance of the Compton amplitude in generalized Bjorken kinematics and relations of twist-three `transverse' skewed parton…
The scattering of two off-shell photons is an infrared-safe process in QCD. For photon virtualities in the range of a few GeV, accessible at LEPII, power-behaved contributions to the total cross section may become non-negligible. Based on a…
Exclusive two-photon reactions such as Compton scattering at large angles, deeply virtual Compton scattering, and hadron production in photon-photon collisions provide important tests of QCD at the amplitude level, particularly as measures…
Cross sections for the reactions gamma^(*) gamma^(*) --> hadrons and gamma^(*) gamma^(*) --> 2 vector mesons are calculated as functions of energy (sqrt(s) > 20 GeV) and photon virtualities. Good agreement with experiment is obtained for…
We consider the inelastic scattering of two photons from two qubits separated by an arbitrary distance $R$ and coupled to a one-dimensional transmission line. We present an exact, analytical solution to the problem, and use it to explore a…
Two-color second-order correlations of the light scattered near-resonantly by a quantum dot were measured by means of spectrally-filtered coincidence detection. The effects of filter frequency and bandwidth were studied under monochromatic…
The goal of this research is to determine and study a physical system that will enable a fast and intrinsically two-photon detector, which would be of interest for quantum information and metrology applications. We consider two types of…
After briefly reviewing past accomplishments of TRISTAN experiments in the field of inclusive two--photon reactions, I discuss open problems in the Monte Carlo simulation of such reactions. The main emphasis is on multiple scattering, i.e.…
