In the simplest example of scattering of two colliding particles with initial momenta
where the last identity expresses momentum conservation. Momentum transfer is an important quantity because

A wave has a momentum
Diffraction
The momentum transfer plays an important role in the evaluation of neutron, X-ray and electron diffraction for the investigation of condensed matter. Bragg diffraction occurs on the atomic crystal lattice, conserves the wave energy and thus is called elastic scattering, where the wave numbers final and incident particles,
