General Scattering Processes and imbedded physical information: the importance of density matrices (P.J. Becker, France)

Topics

  • Scattering by stationary / dynamic targets. Equivalence between optical and quantum mechanical approaches.
  • Scattering cross-sections and space / time correlation function of the target. The relevance of density matrices for modelling correlation functions. Optimal information from a scattering experiment.
  • Compton scattering vs elastic Bragg scattering. Interest for a combined measurement concerning momentum and real space.
  • Some illustrations involving participation of students.
