High energy ionization in liquids: The free ion yield

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10184616
This paper considers some recent experimental results (n-hexane, neopentane, 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpentane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane) which show how G{sub fi}(number of ion pairs or free ions per 100 eV absorbed) depends on conditions. The results provide insight into factors which determine free ion yield: molecular structure, field, temperature, tracks, density.
