AT.energy.straggling.after.slab.E.MeV.u

vector of energies of particle per nucleon [MeV] (array of
 size n) (see also <code><a href="/link/E.MeV.u?package=libamtrack&version=0.6.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="libamtrack::E.MeV.u">E.MeV.u</a></code>).

E.MeV.u

type of the particles in the mixed particle field (array
 of size n) (see also <code><a href="/link/particle.no?package=libamtrack&version=0.6.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="libamtrack::particle.no">particle.no</a></code>).

particle.no

index number for slab material (see also
 <code><a href="/link/material.no?package=libamtrack&version=0.6.3" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="libamtrack::material.no">material.no</a></code>).

material.no

slab.thickness.m

energy spread - 1 sigma - before traversing
 the slab - can be 0 (array of size n).

initial.sigma.E.MeV.u

Get energy spread of an ion beam after traversing
 a material slab according to Bohr's classical theory.
 Bohr, N. (1915), Phil. Mag. 30, 581ff, see also Evans, R.D. (1955), The
 atomic nucleus, McGraw Hill, New York, p. 661
 Please note that the effective charge is assumed to be constant over the
 material slab
 If this is not the case you should apply this routine multiple times to
 subslices

R interface to the open-source, ANSI C library 'libamtrack' (http://libamtrack.dkfz.org). 'libamtrack' provides computational routines for the prediction of detector response and radiobiological efficiency in heavy charged particle beams. It is designed for research in proton and ion dosimetry and radiotherapy. 'libamtrack' also includes many auxiliary physics routines for proton and ion beams. Original package and C-to-R conversion routines developed by Felix A. Klein.
