Abstract

A phenomenological amplitude for proton Compton scattering is obtained, and fits are made to the differential cross-section data. The amplitude is used to calculate the cross sections for the Compton scattering of polarized photons and the polarization of the recoil proton. It is found that the polarized-photon cross sections are sensitive to the amount of ${P}_{11}$ resonance in the scattering amplitude.
