A systematic experimental study of low charge discrimination with cellulose nitrate

  • 1. Universidad Autonoma de Barcelona (Spain)

Description

Over one hundred 250 MeV/nuc carbon and oxygen ion tracks from Berkeley BEVALAC have been registered in cellulose nitrate. Different semiempirical functional forms relating etch-rate with restricted energy loss have been tested as well as the influence of etching and pre-etching storage time. The fitting of the relation Vsub(T) = f(REL) to the experimental points has been used to establish a charge scale in the low Z region. Consistency of scales based on carbon and oxygen as calibration ions is studied. (author)
