Abstract
Calibrated Polyallyldiglycol Carbonate (PADC) detectors have been used to d etermine energy-loss and mean ranges of 13.04 MeV/u Xe-129 ion in mica and Makrofol-KG using the nuclear track technique. The energy-loss rates (dE/dx ) of the ion as a function of energy and depth of penetration in mica and M akrofol-KG have been derived from the respective energy-loss curves. Experi mental data are compared with theoretical values obtained from four differe nt sources. The significance and scope of the work is discussed.
