Abstract :The coherent to Compton scattering cross-section ratio of calcium was measured experimentally for several polar scattering angles insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, and 130°); and azimuthal scattering angles insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(30°, 20°, 10°, 0°, -10°, and -20°);. A high purity germanium semiconductor detector with a resolution of 199.6 eV at 5.9 keV was used. The theoretical values of the coherent to Compton scattering differential cross-section of calcium were calculated on the basis of nonrelativistic form factors, relativistic form factors, and S-matrix theories. It was observed that the experimental results were most compatible with the nonrelativistic form factor theory.
