Outgoing flux

Into what range of angles will the reflector scatter the particles with the impact parameter range considered in (3.2)? (See diagram for angle conventions.) Do you expect the particles to be scattered evenly among these angles? What solid angle does this range of angles subtend? (Recall from spherical coordinates that .)
