Graduate How Do X-Ray Collisions Generate Secondary Particles in Silicon and Aluminum?

Click For Summary
X-ray collisions with silicon and aluminum generate secondary particles primarily through incoherent (Compton) scattering and the photoelectric effect, while coherent scattering does not produce secondary particles. The discussion emphasizes the need for articles and images to support simulations of this phenomenon in Geant4. It notes that the interaction coefficients for aluminum can be referenced to understand similar behaviors in silicon due to their comparable atomic numbers. The user seeks validation for their simulation results based on these interactions. Understanding these processes is crucial for accurate modeling in radiation physics.

TL;DR
I need some articles and pictures about secondary-particle generation when x-ray(with different energy) collides with silicon and aluminium materials.
Hello,
I need some articles and pictures about secondary particle generation when x-ray(with different energy) collides with silicon and aluminium materials. I am simulating this phenomenon in geant4. I just want to validate my result.
