Description:
The X-ray scattering power of a plane parallel homogeneous slab of material is derived using radiation intensity transfer equations. The scattering power scales with the ratio of the scattering coefficient of interest to the total attenuation coefficient. The results can be used to guide the choice of slab thickness, scattering geometry and photon energy to maximize the scattering power in both elastic and inelastic X-ray scattering experiments.
