Abstract
In this thesis we first discuss the S-matrix expansion in the interaction representation.
Vve employ this to illustrate the calculational techniques in the study
of one of the QED processes-i.e., electron Compton scattering. "Ve then formulate
Scalar Electrodynamics which is the relativistic theory for the interaction of scalar
particles (such as 1fo,1f±) with the electromagnetic fields A", In this process we
work out the mathematical forms of the pion propagator. ~We then use Scalar
Electrodynamics to study the processes such as pion Compton scattering and pion
Electroproduction. "Ve give explicit evaluation of the transition amplitudes and
the scattering cross sections for both these processes. 'Ve then compare the pion
Compton scattering results with the corresponding results for the electron Compton
scattering
