Final state
- Geant3 (optional)
Atomic form factor F(E,Z): parameterisation (~8 parameters per element)
Sample the gamma angle from Rayleigh differential cross section,
which depend of the form factor.
- Geant4 low energy
select randomly an element within the material.
Atomic form factor F(E,Z) extracted from EPDL97 data set.
Angular distribution is Rayleigh distribution multiplied by
form-factor square.
