Bloch theory

While this has been known for a long time, recent developments in heavy-ion stopping [56] stimulated a reevaluation of the Bloch theory which resulted in a major revision of relativistic stopping theory, giving rise to substantial changes in quantitative predictions, in particular for the heaviest ions [9]. 

Finally - and equally important - Jens contribution to the formal treatment of GOS based on the polarization propagator method and Bethe sum rules has been shown to provide a correct quantum description of the excitation spectra and momentum transfer in the study of the stopping cross section within the Bethe-Bloch theory. Of particular interest is the correct description of the mean excitation energy within the polarization propagator for atomic and molecular compounds. This motivated the study of the GOS in the RPA approximation and in the presence of a static electromagnetic field to ensure the validity of the sum rules.

This equation is a generalization of an equation previously found by Bloch and generalized by Lindgren. Solving the operator equation (22) appears as the main task in the Bloch theory of effective Hamiltonians since H can immediately be deduced from Cl by means of (20). It will also be shown below that the wave operator 12 plays a fundamental role in the whole theory of effective Hamiltonians. 

H is the Bloch operator associated with the main model space. In close analogy with the Bloch theory, an equation for R can be chosen in the form... 

Abstract The effects of interactions of the various kinds of nuclear radiation with matter are summarized with special emphasis on relations to nuclear chemistry and possible applications. The Bethe-Bloch theory describes the slowing down process of heavy charged particles via ionization, and it is modified for electrons and photons to include radiation effects like bremsstrahlung and pair production. Special emphasis is given to processes involved in particle detection, the Cherenkov effect and transition radiation. Useful formulae, numerical constants, and graphs are provided to help calculations of the stopping power of particles in simple and composite materials. 

Stopping power data for protons and alpha particles have been tabulated in the ICRU Report 49 (ICRU 1993a). While at high energies the Bethe-Bloch theory is accurate to a few percent, at low energies sufficiently accurate values are obtained by fitting experimental data, and in the...
