Delta rays having an energy as low as 2–5 kev. have been counted along the tracks of mesons, protons, and α rays of low velocity, allowing the identification of each. Three methods are presented and applied to determine the efficiency ƒ of counting delta rays of various energies; measured values of ƒ vary between 0.05% at 2 kev. and 100–180% near 50 kev. The number of grains, and the energy distribution among visible delta rays, are analyzed. A new method of determining velocity, based on the analysis of the number of grains in the delta rays, is presented. In the Appendix, the effect of relativistic corrections is computed and discussed. It is small except at large velocities where comparison with experiment is difficult.

Particles are sensed through their interactions with matter. To begin with, the chapter introduces the terms cross section and absorption. Then successively the most important interactions that are employed for the detection of the various particle types are discussed: energy loss of charged particles by ionisation and bremsstrahlung, multiple Coulomb scattering of charged particles, interactions of photons and hadrons with matter. The interactions leading to the development of electromagnetic and hadronic showers are treated in more detail in chapter 15 (Calorimeters), while energy loss by Cherenkov and transition radiation are discussed in chapters 11 and 12, respectively. When describing the interaction processes an attempt is made to address the theoretical background in a way that the derivations ought to be comprehensible.

We consider the problem of the radiation losses by fast-traveling particles traversing two-dimensional (2d) materials or thin films. After review¬ing the screening of electromagnetic fields by two dimensional conducting ma¬terials, we obtain the energy loss by a fast particle traversing such a material or film. In particular, we discuss the pattern of radiation emitted by monolayer graphene treated within a hydrodynamic approximation. These results are com¬pared with recent published results using similar approximations and, having in mind a potential application to particle detection, we briefly discuss how one can improve on the signals obtained by using other two-dimensional materials.

The R2-gravity contribution to the gravitational energy loss in a classical scattering of two charged particles is calculated using the classical formula of the quadrupole radiation, assuming the small angle scattering approximation.
