  2. Atomic form factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_form_factor

    X-ray atomic form factors of oxygen (blue), chlorine (green), Cl − (magenta), and K + (red); smaller charge distributions have a wider form factor.. In physics, the atomic form factor, or atomic scattering factor, is a measure of the scattering amplitude of a wave by an isolated atom.

  3. Mott–Bethe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mott–Bethe_formula

    The Mott–Bethe formula is an approximation used to calculate atomic electron scattering form factors, (,), from atomic X-ray scattering form factors, (,). [1] [2] [3] The formula was derived independently by Hans Bethe and Neville Mott both in 1930, [4] [5] and simply follows from applying the first Born approximation for the scattering of electrons via the Coulomb interaction together with ...

  4. Heel effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heel_effect

    An illustration of the heel effect in an x-ray tube. In X-ray tubes, the heel effect or, more precisely, the anode heel effect is a variation of the intensity of X-rays emitted by the anode depending on the direction of emission along the anode-cathode axis. X-rays emitted toward the anode are less intense than those emitted perpendicular to ...

  5. Debye–Waller factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye–Waller_factor

    The Debye–Waller factor (DWF), named after Peter Debye and Ivar Waller, is used in condensed matter physics to describe the attenuation of x-ray scattering or coherent neutron scattering caused by thermal motion. [1] [2] It is also called the B factor, atomic B factor, or temperature factor.

  6. Moseley's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moseley's_law

    A list of experimentally found and theoretically calculated X-ray transition energies is available at NIST. [8] Nowadays, theoretical energies are computed with much greater accuracy than Moseley's law allows, using modern computational models such as the Dirac–Fock method (the Hartree–Fock method with the relativistic effects accounted for).

  7. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_X-ray_absorption...

    When the incident x-ray energy matches the binding energy of an electron of an atom within the sample, the number of x-rays absorbed by the sample increases dramatically, causing a drop in the transmitted x-ray intensity. This results in an absorption edge.

  9. Form factor (quantum field theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_factor_(quantum_field...

    In elementary particle physics and mathematical physics, in particular in effective field theory, a form factor is a function that encapsulates the properties of a certain particle interaction without including all of the underlying physics, but instead, providing the momentum dependence of suitable matrix elements.
