The Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov (DHG) sum rule relates the helicity structure of the photoabsorption cross section to the anomalous magnetic moment of the nucleon. It is based on Lorentz and gauge invariance, crossing symmetry, causality and…
We derive a sum rule which establishes a linear relation between a particle's anomalous magnetic moment and a quantity connected to the photoabsorption cross-section. This quantity cannot be measured directly. However, it can be computed…
We elaborate on a recently proposed extension of the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule which is achieved by taking derivatives with respect to the anomalous magnetic moment. The new sum rule features a {\it linear} relation between the…

The generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule is understood based on the polarized parton distributions of the proton with the higher twist contributions. A simple parameterized formula is proposed to clearly present the…
The formulation of the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule is revisited, showing its connection with other sum rules occurring in electron scattering and discussing the problem of its saturation, both from the theoretical and experimental point…

The Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule is a generic relation that has been used to make significant contributions to research in hadronic physics. It connects the spin-dependent cross-section for photoproduction off a particle to the squared…
All derivations of the GDH sum rule are presented and discussed in detail, focussing particularly on the validity of the underlying assumptions. Several tests of the sum rule within perturbative models are reviewed. Various possible sources…
We calculate the forward spin-dependent photon-nucleon Compton amplitudes $S_1$ and $S_2$ as functions of photon energy $\nu$ and mass $Q^2$ at the next-to-leading (${\cal O}(p^4)$) order in chiral perturbation theory, from which we extract…
Applications of the chiral expansion to generalize the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule for finite $Q^2$ are discussed. The observation of several authors that the corrections to the leading order contributions are large and limit the…
One-loop diagrams containing a graviton provide a finite contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment $\al$ of a lepton, whether or not the graviton propagates in $n$ large extra compact dimensions. In the present work, the tree graph…
The GDH sum rule is discussed for the Delta(1232) resonance. It is shown that apart from ordinary excitations to higher-energy states, the sum rule contains a large negative contribution due to de-excitation into the nucleon state.…

Hadron properties are modified when the hadron is embedded in a nuclear medium. Here we discuss the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn, GDH, sum rule for polarised photoproduction from a polarised nucleon within a polarised nuclear target. Strong…
