Summary
The range-momentum relationships for heavy low-velocity ions have been determined by measuring the ranges of nuclear emulsion nuclei which were scattered elastically by artificially accelerated 400 MeV40A and 200 MeV20Ne ions. The measurements were made in both K-5 and K-2 nuclear emulsions. Assuming the energy-loss process to be the same for all ions, these observations have been used to construct a universal range-momentum relationship for ions of all charge states.
Riassunto
Si sono determinate le relazioni percorso-impulso per ioni pesanti di bassa velocità misurando i percorsi dei nuclei dell’emulsione nucleare che sono stati diffusi elasticamente da ioni di40A di 400 MeV e20Ne di 200 MeV accelerati artificialmente. Le misure sono state fatte su emulsioni nucleari K-5 e K-2. Supponendo che il processo di perdita di energia sia lo stesso per tutti gli ioni, queste osservazioni sono state usate per costruire una relazione universale percorso-impulso per ioni in tutti gli stati di carica.
