Description

Ionization currents produced in a small wall-less ionization chamber located at varying distance from the 200 MeV Ni12+ ion's path traversing Ar gas were measured and utilized to construct a track structure model. Using the LET value of 200 MeV Ni12+ and G(Fe3+) in Fricke solutions (=15.4) for fast electrons, we estimate G(Fe3+) for 200 MeV Ni12+ to be 5.0. (author)
