Abstract
A general discussion is presented of x-ray Compton profiles for conduction electrons in metals. A formalism that includes both the interelectron Coulomb interaction and the electronion interaction is then introduced. X-ray-scattering measurements of the Compton profiles of single-crystal Li and polycrystalline Na were carried out at room temperature. There is substantial agreement between our experimental data and the theoretical predictions.Keywords
