[PAR] [TLE] Thomson scattering [SEP] Thomson scattering is the elastic scattering of electromagnetic radiation by a free charged particle, as described by classical electromagnetism.  It is just the low-energy limit of Compton scattering: the particle kinetic energy and photon frequency do not change as a result of the scattering.  This limit is valid as long as the photon energy is much less than the mass energy of the particle: formula_1, or equivalently, if the wavelength of the light is much greater than the Compton wavelength of the particle. [PAR] [TLE] Compton scattering [SEP] Compton scattering, discovered by Arthur Holly Compton, is the inelastic scattering
