A study of the response of solid state nuclear track detectors LR115-Ι, LR115-П, CN85 and CR39 to alpha particles using track diameter measurement

Abstract

The accuracy of track diameter for (LR115-Ι, LR115-П, CN85 and CR39) are measured in the present work. Comparison for the response curve is studied regarding the relation between the growth of the diameter (Vd ) and the energy of alpha particles for different detectors with the given processing parameters. As a conclusion: alpha particles with energy 4 MeV give the better results.CR39 track detector is more effected by the energy of alpha particles and the response to register the charge particles than the other detectors used.
