When X-Ray photons collide with electrons?

When X-ray radiation passes through a patient, three types of interactions can occur, including coherent scattering (coherent scatter), photoelectric absorption and Compton scattering . Of these three events, the great majority of scattered X-rays in diagnostic X-ray imaging arise from Compton scattering In coherent scattering, the energy of the primary X-ray photon is first completely absorbed and then re-emitted by the electrons of a single atom. Because no net energy is absorbed by the atom, the re-emitted X-ray has the same energy as the original X-ray, however the direction of re-emission is totally arbitrary In photoelectric absorption, the energy of the X-ray photon is completely absorbed as it ejects a tightly bound electron from one of the atom's inner shells.

The excess energy of the photon over that of the binding energy of the electron is carried off as kinetic energy by the ejected electron. Low energy characteristic radiation is generated as an electron from an outer shell falls into the vacated lower shell Finally, in Compton scattering, the interaction can be considered as a collision between a high energy X-ray photon and one of the outer shell electrons of an atom. This outer shell electron is bound with very little energy to the atom and essentially all of the energy lost by the X-ray photon in the collision is transferred as kinetic energy to the electron, and the electron is ejected from the atom.

Because energy and momentum are both conserved in this collision, the energy and direction of the scattered X-ray photon depend on the energy transferred to the electron. When the initial X-ray energy is high, the relative amount of energy lost is small, and the scattering angle is small relative to the initial direction. When the initial X-ray energy is small, the scattering is more isotropic in all directions.At X-ray energies on the order of 1 MeV (the energy range used in radiation therapy), the scattering is mostly in the forward direction.

At X-ray energies of 100 keV (the diagnostic imaging range), the scattering is more isotropic.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
