Abstract
Cross-sections of two-photon Compton scattering process for 0.662 MeV incident photons have been measured at theta1 = 70-degrees, theta2 = p hi2 = 90-degrees and at phi2 = 90-degrees, phi2 = 135-degrees. The two scattered photons are detected in coincidence using two NaI(Tl) scint illation spectrometers and 30 ns timing electronics. The cross-section values, although of same magnitude, are consistently higher. Some cal culations are also carried out to understand the important features of this weak process.
