What Does CS Stand For?
CS stands for Compton Scattering
Compton Scattering (CS) refers to the phenomenon in which X-ray or gamma-ray photons collide with electrons, resulting in a change in the energy and direction of the photons. This interaction is a fundamental process in quantum mechanics and provides valuable insights into the nature of light and matter, as well as applications in fields such as astrophysics, medical imaging, and radiation therapy. CS exemplifies the particle-like behavior of photons and is key to understanding various effects in both experimental and theoretical physics.
