Inelastic Scattering of Photons from Ionic Crystals and Effects of Overlap

  • Chapter
Quantum Science

Abstract

The Compton scattering experiment has recently been developed as a sensitive probe for electron wave functions in atoms, molecules and solids. The experimental technique in general and the basic theoretical assumptions are discussed. The Compton profile of ionic crystals is evaluated on the basis of a tight-binding (Heitler — London) model and Löwdin’s expansion in terms of overlap integrals. Comparison between experimental and theoretical results for LiF and LiH is made.
