Abstract
The cross-section for two-photon Compton scattering for incident photo ns of energy 0.662 MeV and two emitted photons having energies greater than 50 keV has been measured at different scattering angles theta(1) = 30 degrees to 150 degrees and theta(2) = pi/2; phi(2) = pi. Our mea sured results, although of same magnitude, are consistently higher as compared to theory of Mandl and Skyrme. Some calculations of energy an d direction of the recoil electron are also carried out to understand the important features of this weak process.
