Abstract: | Compton spectrum due to L-shell electrons of thorium has been measured by the coincidence technique, using 279 keV incident gamma photons. The influence of L-shell electron momenta on the distribution of the scattered photons has been studied with reference to the Compton profile due to free electrons and compared with the exact and impulse hydrogenic theoretical models. Significant deviations are found between experimental and theoretical Compton spectra. |
