(revised 4/27/01) Compton ScatteringAdvanced Laboratory, Physics 407 University of WisconsinMadison, Wisconsin 53706 AbstractThe Compton Scattering of the 662 keV gamma rays from the decay ofCs137is measured using a Sodium Iodide detector. The scattered Energy andthe differential cross section are both measured as a function of scatteringangle, and the results are compared to the full relativistic quantum theoryof Compton effect is the elastic Scattering of photons from a reaction, the process is: +e +e .Since this is a two body elastic Scattering process, the angle of the scat-tered photon is completely correlated with the Energy of the scattered photonby Energy and momentum conservation.
The Compton effect is the elastic scattering of photons from electrons. As a reaction, the process is: γ +e −→ γ +e . Since this is a two body elastic scattering process, the angle of the scat-tered photon is completely correlated with the energy of the scattered photon by energy and momentum conservation. This relation is usually ...
