Abstract

The Virtual Compton scattering (VCS) process at low energies explores the electromagnetic structure of the proton in terms of generalized polarizabilities (GPs). In the one-photon exchange approximation, VCS can be accessed with exclusive photon production reactions with electron or positron beams. The extraction of the GPs from VCS with electron beam has seen substantial progress over the past two decades. Nonetheless, a consistent picture of the GPs from low to higher scales demands further investigations. Complementary measurements with positron beams offer an unique possibility, and we present an impact study of such experimental program.
