FAQ

What is the Compton Shift of an Atom?
Compton Shift of an Atom is the separation of the two peaks which depends on the scattering angle,θ of the outgoing beam. Compton Shift of an Atom is usually measured using the Electron Compton Wavelength for Wavelength. Note that the value of Compton Shift of an Atom is always negative.
Can the Compton Shift of an Atom be negative?
Yes, the Compton Shift of an Atom, measured in Wavelength can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Compton Shift of an Atom?
Compton Shift of an Atom is usually measured using the Electron Compton Wavelength[Compton Wavelength] for Wavelength. Meter[Compton Wavelength], Megameter[Compton Wavelength], Kilometer[Compton Wavelength] are the few other units in which Compton Shift of an Atom can be measured.
