Magnetic scattering from GdCu2:
![]() |
|
Some key differences: • Magnetic scattering involves the interaction of the neutron's magnetic moment with that of an atomic electron → EM not strong interaction • Both the nature of the scattering and the object that the neutron scatters from are different. • The form of the scattering is therefore quite different. |
