The number of photons per MeV per incident electron per
of radiator (Z,A) is given by [*]:,
where
- photon kinetic energy in MeV;- incident electron total energy (in units of the electron rest mass);
- incident photon energy (in units of the electron rest mass);

Case A: For
the screening effect is negligible, and hence .
