The 10 best physicists
Edinburgh-born James Clerk Maxwell (1831-79) is little known by public. Yet his contribution to physics was just as significant: his theory of electromagnetism showed that electricity, magnetism & light are all manifestations of the same phenomenon, the electromagnetic field. Radio, TV & radar were direct consequences of this work. He also pioneered in optics & colour vision. But his religious zeal led him to dispute the evolutionary thinking of Darwin et al & he denounced natural selection
Compton Scattering
The scattering of photons from charged particles is called Compton scattering after Arthur Compton who was the first to measure photon-electron scattering in 1922. When the incoming photon gives part of its energy to the electron, then the scattered photon has lower energy and according to the Planck relationship has lower frequency and longer wavelength. The wavelength change in such scattering depends only upon the angle of scattering for a given target particle.
