Particle Penetration and Radiation Effects Volume 2

Focusing on ions heavier than helium, this volume delves into the atomic-collision physics relevant to various fields such as materials science, radiation medicine, and nuclear physics. It covers energy ranges from a few keV/u to several hundred MeV/u, making it applicable for advanced studies. Each chapter includes problems to facilitate self-study and enhance learning in university courses. The book aims for consistency in notation across the series, building on the foundational theories established in the first volume.
