What is Compton Scattering?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 чер 2024
- This video provides a detailed overview of Compton Scattering and its role in the development of quantum physics. The photon model of light is used to explain the Compton shift in wavelength of scattered x-rays by electrons. The principles of energy and momentum conservation are used to calculate the size of the wavelength shift as a function of scattering angle. The video ends with a discussion of the significance of the Compton wavelength and its connection with Quantum Field Theory.

This is the kind of high quality physics content that is lacking on UA-cam. It doesn't skimp on the details and doesn't dumb down the content for its audience. Superb work, well done
Thanks for the kind words of encouragement
100 % Right Thank You Physics Explained
@@PhysicsExplainedVideos are you 3blue1brown?
if not, you are bill wurtz
It might be true for us, that we know and love science. But maybe other people find to "hard". Which doesnt mean the video is superdope. Subscribing right now
I also like PBS Spacetime for a dose of physics. Are there other good channels?
please never stop making these! finally, something that has both, the math and the simplicity
Thanks for the feedback, hopefully will have a couple more videos soon
Another superb video explaining both the technical and historical aspects of Compton Scattering. First rate. Keep them coming please!
Thanks for the encouraging feedback, really appreciate it
Yes
Great video, no nonsense, no flashy useless illustrations. This could actually be given to a physics student.. Great job making this!
Thank you very much, I really appreciate the feedback
awesome! I was a little worried that your last video was a one-off considering you haven't uploaded in a while. I'm really happy to see this!
Thanks for the feedback. I can guarantee that there are plenty more videos on their way. Only problem is that they take a very long time to make! The next one is almost ready - it focuses on the Bohr model of the atom and the explanation of emission spectra.
Excellent explanation, for years I thought 'Compton scattering' only happened when the LA police turned up in certain zip codes...
😂
Ohh crap I thought the same thing. Just saw yr comment and now i have to delete mine 😂😂😂
Best comment hands down
Best comment hands down
Another remarkably lucid and insightful video; we are SO fortunate to be able to access educational masterpieces such as this. THANK YOU. I came to this after listening to an old episode of BBC Radio 4's "In Our Time" series" on the subject of the PHOTON. I'm a huge admirer of Melvyn Bragg (the host) and regard the "In Our Time" archive as an intellectual treasure trove and was therefore shocked that the three SMEs in the studio, after spending 45 minutes on the wave-particle duality of light, concluded by saying they don't personally believe it; these were not "electric universe" nuts or "flat earthers" but tenured faculty from major UK physics departments! Based on your video, it seems Compton set out, in essence, to replicate Einstein's Photoelectric work with X-Rays instead of UV. It is remarkable that, in his apparently triumphant overthrow of Maxwell, he regressed all the way back to Newton and billiard balls; quite astonishing "out of the box" thinking.
Your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for making them!
Thanks for the kind words, very much appreciated!
I thought this was a 3brown1blue video. Dammit, I'm still reeling from the Planck constant one. I'll bookmark this and watch it in the morning.
edit: Excellent explanation. Very intuitive with no maths stone left unturned. Thanks very much for posting.
I like ViaScience's videos which are similarly well done, but your added touch of history and my native British accented narration is very welcome.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, I really appreciate it!
@@PhysicsExplainedVideos I know many have told you how amazing your work is.
I just wanted to thank you, your videos convinced me of taking a major in physics.
Now I’m subscribed to Viascience because of this comment. 👍💯
This is the best channel for students on UA-cam.
Thank you kind sir.
My pleasure, glad you are enjoying the content!

Hey, that's nice, theres a hidden proof of the cosine theorem in there.
Same as I thought.
Yup. If you replace the momenta with the sides of the triangles in the diagram, you get a proof of the law of cosines. This happens because both momenta and lengths of triangles are proportional to the sines/cosines of the relevant angles.
Whoa! Nice catch :D
One of the best physics channels out there! Please keep up the good work! I highly appreciate that you don't shy away from some math here, makes the thought processes clearer, not more difficult.
A most excellent presentation. I can only echo what others have written in praise of your work.
Thanks for the feedback, it means a lot
What a great explanation, full of gratitude. That interpretation of compton's wavelength had me in awe.
Glad you liked it, thanks for the feedback
THANK YOU FOR NOT ADDING MUSIC OVER THE WHOLE THING! THUMBS UP !!!
Loving how long and in depth these videos are. Well done
Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. My intention with these videos is to provide a detailed insight into the actual calculations performed by the pioneers of quantum mechanics. I find the history of these ideas fascinating.
Clearest explanations of physics ANYWHERE
Every word he speaks is literal gold
Thank you for teaching me
Man ill get a major in physics if u keep uploading these level of videos that keeps my curiosity alive
I am surprised why so few has subscribed. such top quality stuff . then there are people Vlogging walking around in the PJ's at home and they have a million subscriber. Dont get it at all .. Good job. thank you very much .
Thank you for the very kind feedback, I am glad you enjoyed the video!
I let the advertisement before the video run in full, I really want the creator to get paid well. This is incredibly well explained, bravo to the creator! I wish they had an award for scientific/ educational video such as above for UA-cam. The world needs more of this type videos that enlightens and educate the people, this is why we Internet pioneers worked day and night on open source internet in the 90s, so educational materials like this can flow freely and free mankind.
Bruh, I love how you do like everything on a topic without missing a step. Keep making vids 😍😍
The last few videos you have uploaded are absolutely fantastic! Well done!
Thank you very much for the kind words. I will try my best to maintain the quality with the next round of videos
I am out of words . Fabulous and simple methodical explanation
Brilliant, it's ages I had to do this at high school but it was fun to see this presented in such a compact way, with a few less shortcuts and so much more readable than my teacher's blackboard writing :)
Glad you enjoyed it
What a remarkable video! Very solid, understandable explanation and approach to a problem that's quite hard to grasp, thank you for uploading.
Your succinct explanation lifts a lot of text book fog. Your presentation kept me alert and interested. Now back to the books! thanks
Great video! Full of content and really interesting! Love also the historic part and the description of the experments
This is my third visit to this video, and not because I did not understand it the first time. It's a beautiful video packing seamlessly the actual drivers towards learning a concept-the motivation and the wonderful implications. I'm sure this is not my last visit. Thank you for such content!
Extremely well explained. You touched quite a depth and at the same time maintained the lucidity in explanation. well done. keep up the great work.
Cheers, thanks for taking the time to write such a positive and encouraging comment, I really appreciate it
I really enjoy your videos, and I hope you keep making them, amazing content. I would maybe suggest starting out each video with a stated goal and a summary of the steps you will take, then periodically checking back in with those steps as you move along. It would really help the viewers stay engaged with your process. Thank you for your work on these, they are a boon to youtube regardless.
Awesome. A clear and elegant video. Shows all the important mathematical steps and gives the essential historical context. Wish all physics videos were just like this.
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing explanation, from the basics to the advance. Love it, keep up the good work. I see your channel has very few videos but they are the best. I wish you do more videos. ☺️
Clean, informative, useful! Please keep creating content! I was disappointed to see you have so few. Just subbed.
Thanks for the feedback. More videos on their way
loved this video from the beginning to the end.. please make more of these... kudos to your team for such simple explanations.
"Compton scattering" is a slang term for a common reaction to a drive-by
I knew the comments section wouldn't disappoint me
I was trying to find a way to say this lol kudos to you!
Fantastic video. I'm about to start studying Compton scattering, I wanted a good introduction which didn't skimp on the physical background and maths, and this ticked every box. I'll be sharing this with my fellow students.
I cant explain how good this is, please keep up the good work mate! A lot of guys like me are counting on you
Great video, truly high quality and the explanations are clear. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video.
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated
And there it is ! My entire subatomic physics cours in 20 minutes !
Ok, maybe not, but it's a good part of it.
Superb! Love the mix of explaining the phenomenon through its history of discovery and the math behind it! Thanks for making such great videos!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I must recognize that your explanations are fantastic good. Congrats for you and for the person doing the graphic presentation for the video!
Almost certainly the same person!
Tomorrow is my engineering physics exam. And I am reinforcing my learning with you
Best physics videos in UA-cam ever!
This guy is a genius. I wish I had access to such a excellent quality of videos of when I was in highschool. Love your work keep it up bro.
Edit: You just got a new subscriber (+1)
please don't stop making these kinds of videos and thank you so much and may GOD bless you with the best and most awarding knowledge
Posted just in time for my physics final! Really helped with my understanding on this subject. Thank you!
Glad to hear it!
When I took Physics in college years ago, I was wondering about the term Quantum Teleportation. You've remarkably explained how it's possible! Great job!
Glad to hear that the video helped
I would hate to put you under pressure as I don't want you to lower the quality of your videos, but I... want... moreee!!! But all jokes put aside, your content is excellent and I really enjoy watching them! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the feedback, hopefully should have a few more videos in the next couple of weeks
Never stop making videos, the way you plotted is really cool, it helps me to bring a new aspect in itself. I cordially thank you. Bring these types of videos more with mathematical expressions. Your new subscriber :-D
Cheers for the kind words, I really appreciate it
Great video, thank you for making fantastic videos! My plan for this summer is to watch all of them.
Great content!!
This channel is gonna big soon.
Excellent This is absolutely brilliant. I was reading this from Resnick Haliday and It was tough to understand but this makes it so much clearer
I just found this channel and instantly subscribed. UA-cam channels giving science at this level are rare. I love this. This channel will explode. Make a patreon, people will pay for shit like this.
Thanks for the kind words of encouragement
I love this channel please don't stop creating such quality content you are making people really happy
I love your channel. We need this quality content on UA-cam. Instantly subbed with bell icon
I'm not seeing enough Straight Outta Compton jokes.
When I saw the title, I actually thought it was about Compton. I live close to Southern California. So here's a Compton Scattering joke: Compton Scattering is when you have a drive-by shooting and everyone scatters for their life. 🥺 😃
Excellent. Bloody excellent. Thanks for making this!
Another one beautifully put together. You are certainly going places!
Thanks for the encouraging feedback, much appreciated
that last bit about the confinement of the electron in a one dim box.. absolute peach!!
Glad you liked it! I remember being astounded when I first discovered this. Thanks for the comment
Thank you for the great explanation and the nice proof. I want to learn more about other types of scattering too. Rayleigh Scattering/ Raman Scattering / Mie Scattering. And of course, would love to see the continuation to QED. Keep up the good work!
Rhank you so much that was very brief and so compact, youre a genius!
What a fantastic video and beautiful quote to end on. Credit to you.
Thank you so much for this! You've just gained a new subscriber
Brilliant video. Lucidly explained. Thanks,
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!

Many thanks for this clear and concise exposition of Compton's insights.
My pleasure, glad you liked it
This is so well explained... Thank you so much Im taking a quantum physics exam next week and it helped a lot
THIS is the kind of physics channel I've been waiting for! notification bell on!
Glad to hear it!
This is a fantastic video. As a physics student who enjoys the history of science, to me this video has the perfect ratio of explanation to rigor. Easy sub and will share.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback
Thank you for such a beautiful video!
Absolute Gold. This should be on Curiosity stream
I see. Just one more question, if I may. How does one prevent the parts of my brain that melted, from leaking out my ears? Asking for a friend, of course.
With eardrums intact, there is very little likelihood of drainage via the ear canal. Much more likely, drainage will be through the lower sinus into the back of the throat.
There is a theory of how rapid and numerous doses of a fluid called Tequila can slow and even prevent the melting in the first place, thus greatly reducing the risk of drainage.
Hopefully, this helps your friend.

Cheers! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment - more videos on their way
Your videos are so of good quality.
Great explanation and even better timing! I have an exam on this in a couple days
Love the timing. Watched another video of yours several hours ago, and saw you just uploaded another! I've been (casually) studying for the knowledge of a degree in several areas, including theoretical physics. Great quality, it's a lot less boring watching videos like this that are so well done. I'll be referencing these from time to time xD
