Jw. Norbury et Cm. Mueller, CROSS-SECTION PARAMETERIZATIONS FOR COSMIC-RAY NUCLEI .2. DOUBLE NUCLEON REMOVAL, The Astrophysical journal. Supplement series, 90(1), 1994, pp. 115-117
Parameterizations of double nucleon removal from the electromagnetic a
nd strong interactions of cosmic rays with nuclei are presented. These
parameterizations are an extension of previous single nucleon removal
parameterizations and combined they represent the dominant part of th
e electromagnetic dissociation encountered by a cosmic ray on its trav
ersal through matter. Such parameterizations should be very useful in
studying cosmic-ray transport through the interstellar medium, the Ear
th's atmosphere, spacecraft walls, and extraterrestrial matter.
