Abstract
The nuclear interaction probability of light charged particles in BaF2 crystals has been studied as a function of the incident Particle ener gy. Light charged particles were identified in charge and mass by meas uring their magnetic rigidity and their time-of-flight. The percentage of particles undergoing nuclear interactions has been measured for pa rticles of charge from Z = 1 to Z = 6 and the experimental data are co mpared with the results of a model calculation.
