A comparative study of alternative methods to determine the response of poly-ethylene terephthalate nuclear track detector
arXiv:1711.06838 · doi:10.1016/j.nimb.2018.08.001
Abstract
Two widely used methods of determining the etch-rate ratio in poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET) nuclear track detector are compared. Their application in different regimes of ion$\textquoteright$s energy loss is investigated. A new calibration curve for PET is also presented.
