Bipartition Angles for Compton Scattering by Free Electrons

In the Compton scattering of free electrons, the bipartition angles for the number of scattered photons, the number of secondary electrons, the energy of scattered photons, and the energy of the secondary electrons have been tabulated in terms of the incident photon energy from 10 kev to 10 Mev. (The bipartition angle for a quantity is the half-angle of the cone into which one-half of that quantity is scattered.) The average scattered photon energy and the average Compton electron energy have also been computed. In addition, a relation is given for the probability that the Compton electron energy will fall into the energy interval (E₁, E₂).
