AT.max.E.transfer.MeV {libamtrack} | R Documentation |
Kinetic energy maximally transferred from an ion to an electron in a collision - relativistic or non-relativistic
AT.max.E.transfer.MeV(E.MeV.u)
E.MeV.u |
energies of particle per nucleon [MeV/u]; if positive, the
computation will be relativistic; if negative, the classic formular will be
used (array of size n) (see also |
max.E.transfer.MeV |
