Abstract
The effects of multiple scattering in X-ray
Compton scatter densitometry is discussed. A
mathematical expression for double scattering
intensity is derived. A reduction of about 50%
in the observed discrepancy between the Compton density and the Archimedes density is achieved.
A Compton scatter densitometry equation which
includes both the incoherent and coherent scattering cross-sections is proposed
