Synchrotron-based Compton scattering spectroscopy has largely advanced for the past decade. The advancement of the technique has allowed us to study modern materials in terms of electron density in momentum space (i.e. electron momentum density). This lecture reviews recent technical developments and scientific applications in high-resolution and magnetic Compton scattering, mainly performed at SPring-8 (Super Photon Ring 8GeV) in Japan, after an introduction to Compton scattering and momentum density.
This lecture will cover the following topics:
First lecture:
- Basics of Compton scattering, including magnetic Compton scattering
- What we can learn from momentum density, including spin-polarized momentum density
- Technical aspects of synchrotron-based Compton scattering
Second lecture:
- Fermiology of shape-memory alloys, metal hydrides and strongly correlated materials
- Spin moments and spin-polarized orbitals in f- and d-electron materials
