A calibration procedure for the response of silicon surface-barrier detectors to heavy ions

TL;DR: In this article, a new calibration technique for silicon surface-barrier and other semiconductor detectors to heavy ions is proposed based on the results of measurements of this phenomenon with a variety of ions.

Solid state microdosimetry.

TL;DR: Recent improvements in silicon microdosimetry address the issues of requirement specification, non-spherical shape, tissue equivalence, sensitive volume definition (charge collection complexity) and low noise requirements which have previously impeded the implementation of silicon-based micro dosimetry.

Charge collection in silicon detectors for strongly ionizing particles

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple theoretical model based on diffusion and space charge limited current erosion of the track is described and results in the expression t p = 1.32 × 10 −10 (n 1 E) 1 3 /F for a silicon detector where F is the electric field in the detector at the position of a track, n 1 is the linear carrier density in the track and E is the particle energy.

Passage of Heavy Ions Through Matter

TL;DR: In this article, a survey of experimental data and a semi-empirical correlation of a representative selection of these data are presented, and the properties of heavy ions of relatively low atomic number in the region above 108 cm/sec are considered.

Precision Measurements of Correlated Energies and Velocities of Cf 252 Fission Fragments

TL;DR: In this paper, the relative energies and velocities of single fission fragments from spontaneous fission were measured with estimated accuracies of 0.5% from direct comparison measurements with 30- to 120-MeV ions from the tandem Van de Graaff accelerator.

The energy loss of oxygen and chlorine ions in solids

TL;DR: The stopping powers of solid foils for oxygen and chlorine ions have been measured at energies in the region of 1 MeV/amu as mentioned in this paper, and the results can be reproduced to within 5% by a single empirical relation between the velocity of the moving ion and its effective charge.

Energy loss and effective charge of heavy ions in aluminum

L. C. Northcliffe
- 01 Dec 1960 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a magnetic spectrograph was used to determine the effective charge of an ion as a function of its velocity which was consistent with deviations of the observed range-energy curves and presumably can be used to predict the range energy curves for ions not investigated experimentally.
