What is Elastic Scattering?
Elastic scattering is a form of particle scattering in scattering theory, nuclear physics and particle physics. In this process, the kinetic energy of a particle is conserved in the center-of-mass frame, but its direction of propagation is modified (by interaction with other particles and/or potentials) meaning the two particles in the collision do not lose energy. Furthermore, while the particle's kinetic energy in the center-of-mass frame is constant, its energy in the lab frame is not. Generally, elastic scattering describes a process in which the total kinetic energy of the system is conserved. During elastic scattering of high-energy subatomic particles, linear energy transfer (LET) takes place until the incident particle's energy and speed has been reduced to the same as its surroundings, at which point the particle is "stopped".
How to Calculate Determination of Amount of Energy Transferred to Target in Elastic Scattering?
Determination of Amount of Energy Transferred to Target in Elastic Scattering calculator uses Kinetic Energy gained by Target Nucleus = ((4*Mass of Incident Particle*Mass of Target Nucleus*(cos(Angle between Initial and Final Path of Particle))^2)/(Mass of Incident Particle+Mass of Target Nucleus)^2)*Kinetic Energy of Incident Particle to calculate the Kinetic Energy gained by Target Nucleus, The Determination of Amount of Energy Transferred to Target in Elastic Scattering formula is defined as the type of collision in which the kinetic energy of the incident particle which collides with the target molecule, gets transferred to the target nucleus, which in turn breaks into smaller fragments. Kinetic Energy gained by Target Nucleus is denoted by EM symbol.
