Solid angle corrections to single scattering

F.F. Heymann, P.I.P. Kalmus

Abstract

Corrections relating the average intensity of particles scattered into an aperture of finite solid angle to the intensity at the centre of the aperture are given for rectangular and circular apertures. The dependence of the corrections on aperture shape and scattering angle is calculated for electrons scattered according to the simple Mott formula.
