X rays of wavelength 0.0100 nm are directed in the positive direction of an x axis onto a target containing loosely bound electrons. For Compton scattering from one of those electrons, at an angle of 180°, what are (a) the Compton shift, (b) the corresponding change in photon energy, (c) the kinetic energy of the recoiling electron, and (d) the angle between the positive direction of the x axis and the electron’s direction of motion?

For a free relativistic quantum particle moving with speed u, the total energy of the particle is E = hf = hω = √p2c2 + m2c4 and the momentum is p = h/λ = hk = γmu. For the quantum wave representing the particle, the group speed is υg = dω/dk. Prove that the group speed of the wave is the same as the speed of the particle.
