Talk:Electron scattering

Nonsensical section on inelastic scattering

The section on inelastic scattering present in the page currently is nonsensical. It is a generic description on the inelastic scattering of macroscopic bodies, which has no relation to the subject matter (electron scattering). A proper section on inelastic electron scattering is much needed, as it is, for example, important to understand at which energies inelastic processes (such as the emission of a photon or even hadrons) starts to occur. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jocryptowiki (talk • contribs) 19:28, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removed redirect

This page used to redirect to Thomson scattering which is scattering of photons by electrons. In my opinion electron scattering should be understood as the scattering _of_ electrons, so I removed the redirect and wrote this stub. O. Prytz 10:52, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Stub to Article Construction

Began work on writing the Electron scattering stub into an article. Wrote and referenced a new introduction that I still need to expand upon and restructured the Types of Scattering for expansion. IndianFace (talk) 11:29, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just a suggestion as to how you could continue the article after the different types of scattering have been discussed. You could talk about the implications of the different types and explain why they are useful to physics.

Why Electron Scattering?

It is a general article on scattering, not just electron scattering. By the way, Compton scattering isn't electron scattering. Poorly written article!

Added by User:Ldm1954, March 6th. Agreed, this is a poorly written article. Ignore RHEED, Electron diffraction, Electron microscopy and more. Some of the history is also poor, for instance what about the experiment of George Paget Thomson and Alexander Reid.

I suggest renaming it High Energy Electron Scattering, and removing parts that do not fit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ldm1954 (talk • contribs) 20:15, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
