Interaction of x-rays with matter 1 The photon moves towards the atom
Interaction of x-rays with matter 1 The photon meets an electron and is annihilated
Interaction of x-rays with matter 1 The electron gains the energy of the photon and is turned into a blue electron.

Interaction of x-rays with matter HINT(1) describes the interaction of the vector field A on the momentum operator p of an electron, or in other words the electric field E acting on the electron moments. The momentum operator p is given as the electron charge q times the displacement operator r.
Interaction of x-rays with matter HINT(2) describes the second order interaction of the vector field A. This gives rise to the elastic scattering of the x-rays by the electrons. This is the basis for x-ray diffraction (XRD) and small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS)
