  • Abstract
    We discuss an implementation of Photo Absorption Ionisation model describing ionisation energy loss produced by a relativistic charged particle in very thin absorbers. The implementation allows us to calculate ionisation energy losses in any material consisting of elements with atomic numbers in the range 1–100. Comparisons of simulation with the experimental data from gaseous and solid state detectors are presented.
