Lecture
Basic concepts of photons and x-rays
Description
This lecture covers the interaction types of x-rays with matter, including reflection, refraction, absorption, and diffraction. It also discusses the interaction strengths, cross-sections, and attenuation lengths of UV and x-rays, as well as the importance of matching photon energy to experiments and the deadliness of ionizing radiation.
