摘要
We discuss the low-energy behavior of the spin-averaged amplitude of virtual Compton scattering off a nucleon. Based on gauge invariance, Lorentz invariance, and the discrete symmetries, it is shown that to first order in the frequency of the final real photon only two generalized polarizabilities appear. Different low-energy expansion schemes are discussed and put into perspective.
