| Abstract: | The cross section is studied for the inelastic magnetic scattering of epithermal neutrons by electrons in a metal where the states for the electrons are described by band theory. If the ratio between the wave number of the electrons and the wave number of the incoming neutrons is small compared with unity but not smaller than the mass ratio between electron and neutron, it is possible to calculate the cross section in the vicinity of certain scattering angles more closely. By such experiments one could obtain some information about the diameter of the Fermi surface and the mass tensor of the electrons. |
