"In photoelectron diffraction, it is well known that for high photoelectron kinetic energy (typically > 900 eV), the scattering factor is strongly peaked in the forward direction. It means that photoelectrons are almost not deviated after a scattering event.\n",
"\n",
"Peaks of intentisity are then usually observed for dense atomic directions of the sample. This is the **forward scattering approximation**.\n",
"\n",
"For such high kinetic energy, multiple scattering is needed to accurately describe the measured intensity, but the matrix inversion algorithm cannot be used since the memory needed for storing the matrix itself would be generally too large. The matrix will contain\n",
"$(N \\times (L_{max}+1)^2)^2$ elements of complex type with double precision (64 bits) where $N$ is the number of atoms and $L_{max}$ is the number of spherical harmonics used to expand the electron wave around each atomic center. As the kinetic energy increases, the mean free path (MFP) of the photoelectron is larger and the number of atoms in the cluster has to be greater. Lmax also increases with the kinetic energy."
