In a particular Compton scattering experiment, it is found that the incident wavelength is shifted by 0.5 percent when the scattering angle is θ = 130°. What is the magnitude of the wavelength of the scattered photon?
In the Compton scattering, the photon of energy 9,2 MeV is scattered from a free electron of mass 9.1×10−319.1×10−31 kg, What is the kinetic energy acquired by the electron (in MeV), if the scattering angle is 15∘15∘?
X-rays with an energy of 400 keV undergo Compton scattering with a target. If the scattered X-rays are detected at θ=30​∘​​ relative to the incident X-rays, what is the Compton shift at this angle?
