Kinetic energy maximally transferred from an ion to an electron
in a collision - relativistic or non-relativistic
Usage
AT.max.E.transfer.MeV(E.MeV.u)
Arguments
E.MeV.u
energies of particle per nucleon [MeV/u]; if positive, the
computation will be relativistic; if negative, the classic formular will be
used (array of size n) (see also E.MeV.u).
# Plot maximum energy transferred in a collision in the range from 1 to 1000
# MeV
# (this is independent of the ion type!) and compare the classical with
# the relativistic approach
E.MeV.u <- 10^seq(0, 3, length.out = 50)
