IONIZATION YIELD OF LOW-ENERGY HEAVY IONS IN ARGON. Final Report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4068673
A cylindrical ionization chamber with a differentially pumped open window was used to measure the total ionization yield of low-energy heavy iore stopped in argon gas. Measurements were made at 8 to 100 ksv for hydrogen, helium, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon ions. The average energy loss per ion pair ranges from 26.8 ev for 50-kev hydrogen ions to 91.8 ev for 25-kev argon ions. A comparison of the ionization yields in argon by various ions having velocities in the same region is presented. (auth)
