Description

We prove that, to lowest order in α, the amplitude for the reaction γ + e → nγ + e, where n = 2,3,4,..., vanishes when all n final photons have momenta parallel to that of the incident photon. We generalize this result to scalar electrodynamics, to the scattering of massless pseudoscalar (scalar) mesons off massive fermions, and to the scattering of massless scalar mesons off massive scalar mesons
