Problem (Elastic Scattering of Light from an Electron) Consider a plane electromagnetic wave incident upon a single electron of charge –e. Calculate the differential and total scattering cross section if the incident radiation is:

a) linearly polarized. b) unpolarized.

Assuming that the magnetic force on the electron is small as long as the electron's motion is nonrelativistic.
