Radiation tail in electron scattering: Approximations in the calculation and comparison to measurements

1989

Abstract Different approximations to the calculation of the radiation tail in electron scattering experiments are investigated with particular emphasis on problems related to the peaking approximation and to the convolution of the different contributions to the tail. The calculations are compared to measurements on C and W targets.

Direct measurement of the radiative tail in electron scattering from atomic nuclei

1985

We have made a direct measurement of the radiative tail of the eleastic peak from several tungsten targets. The measured data have been compared to the results expected for both internal and external bremsstrahlung contributions. Even for targets as thick as 4% of a radiation length of tungsten, agreement between the results of the experiment and the predictions of the theory has been found to be unexpectedly good.
