The analyzing power [math]\displaystyle{ }[/math]
Compton Scattering Differential Cross Section
The differential cross section for Compton scattering is given by the Klein-Nishina formula:
[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{d\sigma}{d\Omega} = \frac{1}{2} r_e^2 (P(E_\gamma,\theta) - P(E_\gamma,\theta)^2 \sin^2(\theta) + P(E_\gamma,\theta)^3) }[/math]
