Abstract
In this paper we calculate the cross section for Virtual Compton Scatt ering off nuclei in the delta resonance region. We also calculate the background for the process from Coherent Bremsstrahlung in nuclei and explore the regions where the Virtual Compton Scattering cross section dominates. The study also shows that it is possible to extract the cr oss section for Real Compton Scattering from the Virtual Compton one i n a wide range of scattering angles.
