Rutherford scattering is also sometimes referred to as Coulomb scattering because it relies only upon static electric (Coulomb) forces, and the minimal distance between particles is set only by this potential.
Elastic Backscattering Spectrometry (EBS) (non-Rutherford) is used when the incident particle is going so fast that it exceeds the “Coulomb barrier" of the target nucleus, which therefore cannot be treated by Rutherford’s approximation of a point charge. In this case Schrödinger's equation should be solved to obtain the scattering cross-section.

Chemical identification of the target elements using the kinematic factor.
E0 = 2.0 MeV HeE1 = 1830 keV
K = 0.9150M2 = 181amuTantalum
This is a spectrum of 2.0 MeV alpha particles incident on a thin film of “unknown composition” scattered at 170o.
