    "abstract": "Traditional textbook explanations of the Compton effect treat the photon\nelectron interaction as a particle collision. This explanation is a pedagogical\ndisaster, implying that sometimes interactions are particle-like whereas\nquantum mechanics always demands that they be wave-like; a photon wavefunction\nevolves according to a wave equation until its collapse at measurement. If this\nis so why then does the classical radiation wave equation fail to predict the\nCompton effect? We address these issues and propose a clearer explanation.",
