Description

This paper describes the results of experimental studies performed at the Joint Inst. for Nuclear Research (JINR) in a 12C ion beam with the primary nominal energy 500 MeV amu-1. Data measured by means of a diamond detector and a spectrometer of linear energy transfer (LET) based on chemically etched track detectors are presented, analysed and discussed. LET spectra are also calculated by program SRIM. (authors)
