TL;DR
Is the incident X-ray beam, with the original wavelength, detected at different scattering angles in Compton scattering experiment or only at zero scattering angle?
I was reading about Compton scattering. I have a question I did not find an answer for it in the book (Concepts of Modern Physics-Sixth Edition-Arthur Beiser) or in the internet search. My question is:
Is the incident X-ray beam, with the original wavelength, detected at different scattering angles in Compton scattering experiment or only at zero scattering angle? If the answer is yes, why?

Doesn't the attachment in your OP answer your question?
