Klein–Nishina formula

The Klein–Nishina formula
gives the differential cross section of photons scattered from a single free electron in lowest order of
quantum electrodynamics. At low frequencies (e.g., visible light) this yields
Thomson scattering; at higher frequencies (e.g., x-rays and gamma-rays) this yields Compton scattering.
For an incident photon of energy E_\gamma, the differential cross section is:〔

: \frac = \alpha^2 r_c^2 P(E_\gamma,\theta)^2 (+ P(E_\gamma,\theta)^ -1 + \cos^2(\theta) )/2
where \frac is a differential cross section, d\Omega is an infinitesimal solid angle element, \alpha is the fine structure constant (~1/137.04), \theta is the scattering angle; r_c=\hbar/m_e c is the "reduced" Compton wave length of the electron (~0.38616 pm); m_e is the mass of an electron (~511 keV/c^2); and P(E_\gamma,\theta) is the ratio of photon energy after and before the collision:
:
P(E_\gamma,\theta) = \frac

Note that this result may also be expressed in terms of the
classical electron radius r_e=\alpha r_c. While this classical quantity is not particularly relevant
in quantum electrodynamics, it is easy to appreciate: in the forward direction (for \theta ~ 0), photons scatter off electrons as if these were about r_e=\alpha r_c (~2.8179 fm) in linear dimension, and r_e^2 (~ 7.9406x10−30 m2 or 79.406 mb) in size.
The Klein–Nishina formula was derived in 1928 by Oskar Klein and Yoshio Nishina, and was one of the first results obtained from the study of quantum electrodynamics. Consideration of relativistic and quantum mechanical effects allowed development of an accurate equation for the scattering of radiation from a target electron. Before this derivation, the electron cross section had been classically derived by the British physicist and discoverer of the electron, J.J. Thomson. However, scattering experiments showed significant deviations from the results predicted by the Thomson cross section. Further scattering experiments agreed perfectly with the predictions of the Klein–Nishina formula.
Note that if E_\gamma \ll m_ec^2,
P(E_\gamma,\theta)\rightarrow 1 and the Klein–Nishina formula reduces to the classical Thomson expression.
The final energy of the scattered photon, E_\gamma', depends only on the scattering angle and the original photon energy, and so it can be computed without the use of the Klein–Nishina formula:
:
E_\gamma'(E_\gamma,\theta) = E_\gamma \cdot P(E_\gamma, \theta) \,
