In the absence of resonances it can be shown that the PV helicity dependence of the total cross section vanishes if only elastic scattering is present and that both the PV neutron spin rotation and the PV helicity dependence of the total cross section with inelastic channels are constant in the limit of zero neutron energy [23]. Joachim's work has been his introduction of elastic scattering quantum chemistry (ESQC) theory to explain tunneling junctions between metal electrodes and molecules, now a standard for STM image calculations. The consequences of elastic scattering are the reduction of beam current within the focused probe and redistribution of this current to form a wide "skirt" around the beam, significantly degrading the spatial resolution of x-ray microanalysis. |
