Sažetak
Virtual Compton scattering (VCS) γ ∗p → γp at low CM energy gives access to the generalized polarizabilities of the nucleon. These observables generalize the concept of electromagnetic polarizabilities to the case of a virtual photon. Dedicated VCS experiments have been performed at MAMI, Jefferson Lab and MIT-Bates. The experimental status is reviewed, including methods of analysis and physical results. The measurement of absolute (ep → epγ) cross sections allows the extraction of the two unpolarized VCS structure functions PLL − PTT/ǫ and PLT, which are combinations of the generalized polarizabilities of the proton. Future prospects in the field of VCS at low energy are also presented.
