The scattering of photons from charged particles is called Compton scattering after When the incoming photon gives part of its energy to the electron, then the scattered photon has lower energy and according to the Planck relationship has lower frequency and longer wavelength. The wavelength change in such scattering depends only upon the angle of scattering for a given target particle. The constant in the Compton formula above can be written
Given is:-
Energy of the beam of photns is = 184keV
Angle at which scattered photons are observed is
Thus the energy of the scattered photons is
(we assume unspecified parameters to the case of molybdenum K-alpha xrays )
thus by putting values in above equation (), we get the energy of scattered photons
or
This implies that the energy transferred to the electron is
