Lecture

Thomson Scattering: Electron Binding and X-ray Interactions

Description

This lecture covers the electron binding energies of elements, the response of bound electrons to x-rays, and the atomic response to x-rays. It explains the fraction of free electrons in atoms and the correction terms to the scattering factor. The lecture also discusses the impact of photon energy on the scattering strength near absorption edges.
