Some Basics of Inverse Compton Scattering in the Thomson Limit lL energy = Ee= g me q lX Normal Compton Scattering the photon has higher energy than the electron The inverse process has the Thomson cross-section when The scattered photon satisfies the undulator equation with period lL/2 for head-on collisions lX = lL (1+a02/2+gq) 4g2 Therefore, the x-ray energy decreases substantially at an angle 1/g IRIDE Study Day - LNF - March 14th 2013
