Abstract
The elastic and inelastic photon scattering from C-12 was investigated in the energy range of the DELTA-resonance (E(gamma) = 200-500 MeV) a t a scattering angle of 40-degrees. The experiment was performed with the tagged photon facility at the cw electron accelerator MAMI (E(e)- = 855 MeV). By using a large NaI(Tl) detector having an energy resolut ion of 1.5%, the elastic scattering could be separated from the inelas tic process to the first excited state (E(x) = 4.44 MeV) of C-12. The differential cross section for the coherent scattering is compared wit h a simple static ansatz, that uses the known charge form factor, and with a recent DELTA-hole calculation.
