Sexact is the incoherent scattering factor calculated analytically from a hydrogenic atomic model. Simp is the incoherent scattering factor calculated by taking the Compton profile derived in the impulse approximation and truncating it for ΔE < EB. SW–H is the Waller–Hartree incoherent scattering factor. Data taken from Bloch & Mendelsohn (1974[link]).
