spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/17520 A review of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect Roscherr, Bruce Cleymans, Jean Physics Quantum electrodynamics Bibliography: pages 57-58. The Bethe-Heitler formula is the correct expression for the energy radiated in the form of bremsstrahlung when a charged particle interacts in isolation with the Coulomb field of a nucleus. When the effects of multiple scattering are taken into account, however, the formula needs modification. This is the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect. We review here several approaches for the calculation of the revised spectrum and compare the results with experiment. 2016-03-04T16:53:57Z 2016-03-04T16:53:57Z 1995 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/17520 eng application/pdf Department of Physics Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
