چکیده

We calculate the electronic stopping power of slow magnetic monopoles in condensed materials and find that, for P &0.01, dE/dx is proportional to the monopole velocity. For monopoles with g =+137e it is found that the monopole stopping power is at least as large as that for a proton with the same velocity. The results presented here are not directly relevant to the evaluation of the response of excitationand ionization-sensitive particle detectors to slow, supermassive monopoles. However, it is hoped that the techniques presented will be a useful guide in thinking about such problems.

The Comparison of the shares of stopping power in a soft tissue-equivalent material

Introduction: Proton therapy is a type of radiation treatment that it uses protons to treat cancer. Because of the protons’ unique ability to distribute the radiation dose more directly to the tumor, it minimizes the damage to nearby healthy tissues. The rate of energy loss by the ion in the target is called stopping power. The total stopping power is sum nuclear and electroni...

Number-conserving linear-response study of low-velocity ion stopping in a collisional magnetized classical plasma.

The results of a theoretical investigation of the low-velocity stopping power of ions in a magnetized collisional and classical plasma are reported. The stopping power for an ion is calculated through the linear-response (LR) theory. The collisions, which lead to a damping of the excitations in the plasma, are taken into account through a number-conserving relaxation time approximation in the L...

Local Field Correction Effect on Dicluster Stopping Power in a Strongly Coupled Two-Dimensional Electron Gas System

We calculate the stopping power for heavy-ion diclusters moving in a strongly coupled two-dimensional electron gas system by using the local field corrected dielectric function at finite temperature. We obtain a parameterized local field correction factor based on a relation between the thermal compressibility and exchange-correlation energy in two-dimension. The interpolated parameter is deriv...
