  • Apparatus and method for the absolute determination of the energy of a ion beam
    Patent number: 5149966
    Abstract: The apparatus and method according to the invention allow for the determination of the energy of a ion beam, by directing the beam against a target of a suitable material, which causes elastic and inelastic scattering of the particles, so as to determine the crossover angle for which the energy of the elastically scattered particles equals that of the inelastically scattered ones, and to calculate, from this angle and from data relating to preselected physical values of the same particle beam, through preselected relativistic kinematic relationships, the energy of the incident beam, with an uncertainty lower than the energy dispersion of the beam.
