SCATTERING
Presented by Hannah Joy M. Monsanto
OBJECTIVES:
Overview
Compton scattering unveils the intricate dance
between light and matter at the quantum level.
Imagine energetic photons (light packets)
colliding with electrons, not just bouncing but
transferring energy. This phenomenon has
fascinating applications, from deciphering
internal structures in medical X-rays to unveiling
the secrets of distant stars and neutron stars,
showcasing the profound impact of fundamental
physics on our understanding of the universe.
Light as a Scattered Photon
Light, often described as a wondrous
phenomenon that illuminates our world,
holds within its essence a fascinating
duality: it behaves both as a wave and as a
Waves particle. At the heart of this dual nature lies
the concept of the photon – the
fundamental unit of light. In our exploration,
we delve into the intricate dance of light as
a scattered photon, uncovering its role in
Particles
phenomena such as Compton scattering
Light as a Scattered Photon
Light as a scattered photon" refers to the phenomenon
where a photon, the fundamental unit of light, undergoes
scattering when it interacts with matter. This interaction can
occur when photons encounter particles such as electrons
or atoms. When a photon scatters, it changes direction and
may also experience a change in energy or wavelength. This
process is known as scattering, and it plays a crucial role in
various natural phenomena and technological applications.

Objective: The objective of the Arambagan Quiz Challenge is to test the knowledge of participants while
fostering teamwork and collaboration within the groups.
Setup:
1. The class is divided into two groups, Group A and Group B.
2. Each group selects a representative to answer questions on behalf of the team.
3. A moderator or host oversees the game and presents questions to the groups.
Gameplay:
1. The game consists of several rounds.
2. The moderator presents a question to the groups.
3. The representatives of each group will race to the board and write their answer.
4. The first representative to correctly answer the question by writing it on the board earns 2 points for their
team. If the other team correctly answer the question, they will still gain 1 point.
5. The moderator keeps track of each group's score throughout the game. The game will be a race to 5
having 2 points each question.
End of Game:
1. The game concludes after all rounds have been completed or after a predetermined number of rounds.
2. The group with the highest score at the end of the game is declared the winner.
