TY - JOUR AU - Kabadayi, Onder PY - 2004 TI - Range of Medium and High Energy Protons and Alpha Particles in NaI Scintillator JF - American Journal of Applied Sciences VL - 1 IS - 1 DO - 10.3844/ajassp.2004.33.35 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/ajassp.2004.33.35 AB - We have calculated the range of proton and alpha particle in NaI scintillator which is a commonly used substance in scintillation detector manufacturing. The stopping power of proton and alpha particle in NaI is calculated first by using the theoretical treatment of Montenegro et al.[1]. The range calculation has been performed by using a technique that we developed in the earlier works[2,3]. We compared the results with Monte Carlo simulation program SRIM2003 and PRAL[4]. The obtained results are in satisfactory agreement with the literature."
