Hello all,
Can anyone explain to me which electrons contribute in compton scattering?
-Only free electrons;
-Free electrons and weakly bounded to atoms;
-All atomic electrons and free electrons
According to Klein-Nishina formula, photons scatter with all atomic electrons; becouse the cross-section is proportional to Z. But in some books define Compton scattering with only free or weakly bounded electrons. What is true?
Please send me your idea.
Thanks
