With the development of potent x-ray sources at many synchrotron
laboratories worldwide, Compton scattering has become a standard
tool for studying electron densities in materials. This book
provides condensed matter and materials physicists with an
authoritative, up-to-date, and very accessible account of the
Compton scattering method, leading to a fundamental understanding
of the electrical and magnetic properties of solid materials. The
spectrum of Compton scattered x-rays is particularly sensitive to
this behavior and thus can be used as a direct probe and to test
the predictions of theory. The current generation of synchrotron
facilities allows this method to be readily exploited to study the
ground state electron density in both elements and in complex
compounds. It is important that those working in related fields, as
well as the increasing number directly using the Compton method,
have a comprehensive assessment of what is now possible and how to
achieve it, in addition to a full understanding of its theoretical
basis. This monograph is unique and timely, since little of what is
described, was practicable a decade ago. The development of
synchrotron radiation facilities has ensured that the technique
described here will remain a powerful probe of electron charge and
spin density for many years to come.
