Incident X-Ray Energy Dependence of Neon Compton Profiles

Abstract

Exact hydrogenic (EH) Compton-profile calculations have been performed for the $L$ shell of neon. For the scattering of Mo $K\ensuremath{\alpha}$ and Ag $K\ensuremath{\alpha}$ radiation from neon the EH calculations show the Mo $K\ensuremath{\alpha}$ profile to lie higher at the center, in agreement with the experimental results of Eisenberger. An accurate configuration-interaction impulse Compton profile for neon is calculated and it is observed that the effect of correlation of $J(0)$ is significantly smaller than reported earlier.
