**Magnetron** ============= .. _effective_cross_section: **Effective cross section** The effective cross section is a physical quantity characterizing the probability of transition of a system of two interacting particles to a certain final state, a quantitative characteristic of the acts of collision of particles of a stream hitting a target with target particles. The effective cross-section has the dimension of the area. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.condensed_matter.magnetron **Contents:** .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 4 condensed_matter.magnetron.boundary_of_thermalization_zone_of_atomized_atoms_in_magnetron condensed_matter.magnetron.distance_of_greatest_convergence_of_particles_in_magnetron condensed_matter.magnetron.energy_transfer_coefficient_for_elastic_scattering_in_magnetron condensed_matter.magnetron.etch_rate_of_target_in_magnetron condensed_matter.magnetron.interaction_cross_section_in_coulomb_interaction_model condensed_matter.magnetron.interaction_cross_section_in_elastic_interaction_model condensed_matter.magnetron.interaction_cross_section_in_model_of_hard_spheres condensed_matter.magnetron.interaction_cross_section_in_recharge_model condensed_matter.magnetron.number_of_collisions_of_particle_with_gas_in_magnetron
