X-ray Compton scattering

X-ray Compton scattering / Malcolm J. Cooper [and others] ; with contributions from B. Barbiellini [and others].

With the development of potent x-ray sources, Compton scattering has become a standard tool for studying electron densities in materials. This text looks at the Compton scattering method, leading to a fundamental understanding of the electrical and magnetic properties of solid materials, both elemen...
