The general differential cross section for Compton scattering in a strong magnetic field is calculated by Herold (1979) under the assumption that the initial and final states of electrons are in the lowest Landau level and the magnetic field is uniform. The authors carry out the Lorentz transformation for Herold's differential cross section and manipulate some numerical integrations, from which they get the total cross sections of the inverse Compton scattering. At the same time the power loss of an electron is also derived as it passes through a thermal radiation field near the surface of a neutron star.
