nuclear-scattering amplitude

  • 1Scattering amplitude — The scattering amplitude describes the amplitude of an outgoing, elementary, spherical wave relative to a plane, incoming wave scattered on a point size particle. Since the spherical wave amplitude varies with frac{1}{R} (note, the intensity is… …
