PY - 1927 DA - 1927/04/01 TI - The Scattering of Electrons by a Single Crystal of Nickel JO - Nature SP - 558 EP - 560 VL - 119 IS - 2998 AB - IN a series of experiments now in progress, we are directing a narrow beam of electrons normally against a target cut from a single crystal of nickel, and are measuring the intensity of scattering (number of electrons per unit solid angle with speeds near that of the bombarding electrons) in various directions in front of the target. The experimental arrangement is such that the intensity of scattering can be measured in any latitude from the equator (plane of the target) to within 20° of the pole (incident beam) and in any azimuth.
