Hello Eric,

about my experiment: It was Proton Compton scattering to check the 
Optical Theorem for very small angles of deflection.

As original source we used an electron beam with electrons of constant 
energy 6 GeV. The electrons were converted into photons by 
bremsstrahlung. The result was an energy spectrum from zero to 6 GeV. 
The maximum of intensity was at 6 GeV, above that was a sharp cut-off.

The photons were deflected by protons (i.e. liquid hydrogen) by very 
small angles, i.e. the detector was placed so that only photons under 
small angles caused a measurement trigger. As a detector a piece of 
aluminium was used in which the photons were converted into 
electron-positron pairs. The electrons and positrons were deflected in a 
magnet and the direction by which these particles left the magnetic 
field was measured by a telescope of spark chambers. From the direction 
of the particles the energy and the momentum of each particle was 
calculated and so the energy of the photon which caused the pair 
production. The result was the same spectrum with the sharp cut-off at 6 
GeV.

For the determination of the photon energy which is the point of our 
discussion here the sharp edge of the spectrum at 6 GeV is essential. 
This edge is known as a property of the bremsstrahlung spectrum and it 
is found in the sum energy of the electron and positron pair.

Do you want more details about this experiment? Please ask.

And which were your experiments about light?

Best
Albrecht
