You use 0.124 nm x-ray photons in a Compton-scattering experiment. (a) At what angle is the wavelength of the scattered x rays 1.0% longer than that of the incident x rays? (b) At what angle is it 0.050% longer?
X-rays having energy of 250 keV undergo Compton scattering from a target. The scattered rays are detected at 41.0° relative to the incident rays. (a) Find the Compton wavelength shift at this angle. (b) Find the energy of the scattered x-ray. (c) Find the kinetic energy of the recoiling electron.
In a Compton scattering experiment, the incident X-rays have a wavelength of 0.2686 nm, and the scattered X-rays have a wavelength of 0.2707 nm. Through what angle θ in the drawing are the X-rays scattered?
