Note that there is a sign error in Eq. (12) of reference
[3] - it should read
This equation describes the differential cross section for
elastic photon scattering from an unpolarized target in
terms of the Stokes parameters and combinations of two
complex amplitudes. It corresponds to Eq. (3)
of this paper. The amplitudes A|| and
are
related to the M and N amplitudes through the relations
|
(11) |
A different notation for the Stokes parameters was used in
[3]. In order to compare Eq. (10) with
Eq. (3) the following substitutions should be
made, relating the two sets of Stokes parameters:
We can then rewrite Eq. (A1) as
|
(13) |
where
and the identification with Eq. (3) of this paper
is complete. A detailed discussion of other commonly used
representations of the invariant amplitudes is given in
[1].
