I use some computational codes.I must to enter Pn scattering order for some materials.What means that? For example what is difference betwen P1,P2,P3 order?
Assuming one is familiar with discrete ordinates methods and spherical harmonics, the n in Pn refers to the number (n+1) of Legendre polynomials with which one expands the angular flux in transport problems, usually in slab geometry.Stephan_doc said:I use some computational codes.I must to enter Pn scattering order for some materials.What means that?

Pn Scattering Order is a measure of the strength and direction of the interaction between two particles. It is used in particle physics to describe the scattering of particles, such as protons and neutrons, and is an important factor in understanding the structure of matter.
Pn Scattering Order is defined as the number of particles that are exchanged between two interacting particles during a scattering event. This number can range from 0 (no particle exchange) to infinity (an infinite number of particles exchanged).
One key difference is the number of particles exchanged. In Pn Scattering Order, an infinite number of particles can be exchanged, while in lower orders, only a finite number can be exchanged. Additionally, Pn Scattering Order takes into account the spin of the particles involved, whereas other orders may not.
Pn Scattering Order is important in understanding the fundamental interactions between particles and the structure of matter. It allows us to calculate the probability of a scattering event occurring and provides insight into the forces that hold matter together.
There are various theoretical and experimental methods for calculating Pn Scattering Order. In theoretical calculations, it is typically determined using mathematical models and equations. In experimental measurements, it can be determined by analyzing the data from particle accelerators and other high-energy experiments.
