Cross section (physics)
In physics, the cross section is a measure of the probability that a specific process will take place in a collision of two particles. For example, the

physics, absorption cross-section is a measure of the probability of an absorption process. More generally, the term cross-section is used in physics
Nuclear cross section
amongst neutron cross sections the absorption cross sections are of particular interest. In nuclear physics it is conventional to consider the impinging
In nuclear physics, the concept of a neutron cross section is used to express the likelihood of interaction between an incident neutron and a target nucleus
Photoionisation cross section
Photoionisation cross section in the context of condensed matter physics refers to the probability of a particle (usually an electron) being emitted from
Radar cross-section (RCS), denoted σ, also called radar signature, is a measure of how detectable an object is by radar. A larger RCS indicates that an
Gamma ray cross section
A gamma ray cross section is a measure of the probability that a gamma ray interacts with matter. The total cross section of gamma ray interactions is
