Peacock et. al used this effect to measure the electron temperature and density in the Russian T3 tokamak, while another way to measure those same parameters in plasmas using this effect is with short pulse lasers in the LIDAR method.

When the scattering parameter one over k times lambda times d is much less than one, this process is incoherent. The cross-section of this phenomenon is given by the formula eight pi over three times the square of the classical electron radius and is independent of the frequency of the incoming radiation. Deriving this effect requires negating the magnetic contribution to the Lorentz force and assuming the system acts as a harmonic oscillator. For 10 points, name this effect in which incoming electromagnetic radiation is scattered by free electrons, the non-relativistic limit of Compton scattering.
