Description
The forward (γ F) and backward (γ B) electron emission yields have been measured for protons incident on thin carbon foils for incident energies between 2 and 7 MeV as a function of the target thickness. Comparisons with theoretical results obtained by Monte Carlo simulations are presented. In particular, the Meckbach factor R γ = γ F/γ B is discussed
