Observation of a Structure in $pp\to pp\gamma \gamma$ near the $\pi \pi$ Threshold and its Possible Interpretation by $\gamma \gamma$ Radiation from Chiral Loops in the Mesonic $\sigma$ Channel

M. Bashkanov, CELSIUS-WASA collaboration

The $pp\to pp\gamma \gamma$ reaction has been measured at CELSIUS using the WASA $4\pi$-detector with hydrogen pellet target. At $T_p=1.20$ and 1.36 GeV, where most of the statistics has bee…
