Zusammenfassung |
Effective energy loss per electron-ion pair
produced, <xi>(E0), as a function of a particle's
initial energy has been obtained for proton transport in the atmosphere. The
influence of some transport parameters on the shape of <xi>(E0)
has been studied. Comparisons with the case of electron transport and with other
results were made. It has been shown that: 1. for E0>1 keV,
<xi>(E0) varies within the range 30-36 eV; 2. as E0
increases the value of <xi>(E0) tries to attain an
asymptotic value that is the same as for electrons (≈35 eV); 3. <xi>(E0)
strongly depends on the average energy of secondary electrons, but the energy
distribution of secondary electrons is not as important. The range of possible
changes in <xi>(E0) associated with discrepancies in
cross sections has been obtained. |
