Abstract

The Compton scattering matrix (CSM) describing the scattering of polarized radiation by electrons is reduced to the form of a single integral over electron distribution. Different methods of calculation of this integral for the Maxwellian electrons are proposed. Series expansions of CSM are found in the limiting cases (ultrarelativistic and non-relativistic electrons, and small photon frequencies).
