Ionization yield refers to the number of ions produced per incident particle or photon. This phenomenon is fundamental to understanding how radiation interacts with matter. When a particle or photon enters a material, it can transfer energy to the atoms or molecules within that material, causing them to lose electrons and become ionized. The ionization yield quantifies the efficiency of this process.
Factors influencing ionization yield include the type of incident radiation, its energy, and the properties of
Ionization yields are crucial in various scientific and technological applications. In radiation detection, ionization chambers and
