Theoretical model of x-ray scattering as a dense matter probe.

Analytical expressions for the dynamic structure factor, or form factor S(k,omega), which is the quantity describing the x-ray cross section from a dense plasma or a simple liquid, can be applied to describe scattering from either weakly coupled classical plasmas or degenerate electron liquids.

Temperature measurement through detailed balance in x-ray Thomson scattering

Thomson scattering in the average-atom approximation.

The average-atom model is applied to study Thomson scattering of x-rays from warm dense matter with emphasis on scattering by bound electrons, and the resulting analysis provides a relatively simple diagnostic for use in connection with x-ray scattering measurements.
