Investigations on the formation of tracks in crystals

  • 1. Eidgenoessische Technische Hochschule, Zurich (Switzerland). Lab. fuer Kernphysik

Description

The minimal energy loss (dE/Dxi)sub(k) (MeV cm2/mg) for the formation of a track in an insulator has been determined for mica, tourmaline, quartz glass, quartz crystal, lithium niobate and beryl. The investigations show that the (dE/dxi)sub(k)-value of a track detector can be roughly estimated from the thermal conductivity of the given material. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Der minimale Energieverlust (de/cxi)sub(k) (MeV cm2/mg) fuer die Bildung einer Spur in einem Isolator ist fuer Glimmer, Turmaling, Quarzglas, Quarzkristall, Lithium Niobat und Beryll bestimmt worden. Die Untersuchungen zeigen, dass der (de/dxi)sub(k)-Wert eines Spurendetektors aus der Waermeleitfaehigkeit des gegebenen Materials grob geschaetzt werden kann. (orig.)
