Evaluation of positron annihilation angular correlation curves and line profiles of compton scattering in noble metals

Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

Angular correlation curveN (θ) as well as the Compton line profile I(δλ) of Cu, Ag, Au and Pt have been calculated by the assumption, that the coincidence counting rate and Compton line shift intensity are proportional to the area of cuts through the body defined by the Fermi surface. Parametrical expression of the Fermi surface were employed and the results were used to fit some measured curves on Cu, Ag and Au.
