Relativistic corrections to photon scattering polarizabilities
Abstract
Photon scattering polarizabilities including m(-2) relativistic corrections are studied. The significant cancellations obtained by extensive use of gauge conditions are emphasized. Low-energy theorems are derived for both elastic and inelastic parity non-changing transitions.
