Abstract

An ion interaction model has been described for simulating positive ion tracks in a variety of media with the capability of interfacing with several secondary electron transport codes. Data are presented for single-and double-differential cross-sections, binding energies, probability density distribution for delocalisation parameters for conductors and tissue, branching ratios and ionisation efficiencies for water vapour and liquid water.
