Ro. Mazzei, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRACKS IN SOLID-STATE NUCLEAR TRACK DETECTORS (SSNTD) AND THE SUBMICROSCOPIC KINETIC-THEORY, Radiation measurements, 26(4), 1996, pp. 577-583
A theoretical model for submicroscopic kinetic of track formation is d
escribed. Three theoretical methods that yield track profiles correspo
nding to normal incidence ions are proposed. Track profiles obtained b
y means of the three methods are in good agreement with each other and
compare favorably with experimental results. They can be applied to d
escribe the track development all the way from very short (''new born'
' tracks) to long etching times (track diameters > 1 mu m). Copyright
