Scientific paper

Using analytic methods, we derived the first-order Green's functions, in terms of the observing angle, for the reflected spectra after a single Compton scattering of relativistic photons by a plane-parallel semiinfinite medium of cold electrons. We also calculated the total Green's functions for incident photons of 511 keV, using Monte Carlo methods. We show that both the first-order and total Green's functions have strong angular dependences and that the first-order Green's functions play a dominant role in determining the properties of the total reflected spectra.
