Compton scattering amplitude and propagator

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on proving the propagator in the context of Compton scattering amplitude within Quantum Field Theory (QFT). Participants emphasize the necessity of understanding the quantization of the Dirac field to derive its propagation amplitudes. The conversation highlights the importance of the participant's background knowledge in QFT to tailor the explanation effectively.

I'm afraid answering your questions will depend on the background you'd like the explanation to be standing in. In other words, what level of QFT physics you are interested in? For instance, can I assume you're aware of how to quantize the Dirac field and then get its propagation amplitudes?

If you let me know your overall level in QFT, I might be able to answer the above questions.
