The probability for Compton scattering is approximately proportional to Z, and for energies greater than 500 keV approximately proportional to 1/Egamma
The probability for Compton scattering is approximately proportional to Z, and for energies greater than 500 keV approximately proportional to 1/Egamma
This sentence was copied verbatim (and mindlessly) from here: http://ie.lbl.gov/education/glossary/glossaryf.htm
Without an explanation of Z, E and gamma, it doesn't make any sense. You may say that it isn't plagiarism, as the source is an agency of the government. But obviously the sentence was copied without any understanding of the subject! That means that it isn't helpful for any reader, careless editing - and bad manners.
