Summary
The energies of electrons scattered in head-on collisions by photons with energies of (l/3)MeV have been measured and found to agree with the predictions of special relativity to an experimental uncertainty of 0.1%.
Riassunto
Si sono misurate le energie degli elettroni diffratti in collisioni frontali da fotoni di energie di (1/3) MeV e si è trovato che esse concordano con le predizioni della relatività ristretta entro un’incertezza sperimentale del 0.1%
Резюме
Были измерены энергии электронов, рассеянных при лобовых соударениях с фотонами с энергиями в области (1/3) МэВ. Результаты соглас энергиями в области (1/3) МэВ. Результаты согласуются с предсказаниями специальной теории относительности в пределах экспериментальной неопредел предсказаниями специальной теории относительности в пределах экспериментальной неопределенности 0.1 %. пределах экспериментальной неопределенности 0.1 %.
