Abstract

The general formalism for nuclear photon scattering presented earlier is simplified and recast in a form more useful to experimentalist. All photon polarization and nuclear orientation effects are included. The cross sections are written as “Fourier series” of angular functions involving the photon directions. The coefficients in this series depend only on nuclear properties and contain the same reduced matrix elements of the nuclear current and magnetization density that enter the theory of photo- and electro-excitation. Special geometries and experimental situations are discussed, and numerical examples involving E1-E2 and E1-M1 interference are presented.
