TL;DR
This paper demonstrates that the Compton profiles of alkali metals, influenced by valence electrons, can be modeled with a q-Gaussian distribution, revealing a universal scaling behavior across different elements.
Contribution
It introduces a novel q-Gaussian model for Compton profiles and uncovers an unexpected scaling law for alkali metals.
Findings
Compton profiles are well-described by q-Gaussian distributions.
Anisotropic, element-dependent q parameters characterize the profiles.
A universal scaling behavior applies to all alkali metals.
Abstract
The contribution of the valence electrons to the Compton profiles of the alkali metals is calculated using density functional theory. We show that the Compton profiles can be modeled by a Gaussian distribution, which is characterized by an anisotropic, element dependent parameter . Thereby we derive an unexpected scaling behavior of the Compton profiles of all alkali metals.
