Klein-Nishina formula
(formula for the effects of electrons scattering photons)
The Klein-Nishina formula is an equation yielding the differential cross section
of a free electron that is scattering a photon, either
Thomson scattering or Compton scattering, depending upon
the frequency of the EMR. It was an improvement on the
Thomson-scattering formula. The differential cross section can
be a stepping stone to calculating other values.
