Cross section of interaction in elastic interaction model¶
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.
