2. Many of the results were obtained by using Infinite rather than semi-Infinite geom etries. This was done either to simplify the measurement or to facilitate compari son with Spencer's early calculations. In any case, the semi-infinite geometry is of more practice! importance, 3. In the caae of semi-Infinite geometries, there are very little data for electron energies leas than 1.0 MeV for nonnormal incidence, and for multlalab media, 4. Spatial resolution near the surface of aemi-Infinite geometries Is poor, especially for hlgh-atomic-numbcr media. 0,3 a.4 as a* FRACTION OF A ftCAIf RANGE Figure 1.1, Comparison of Experimental Measurements and Theoretical Predictions of Energy Deposition Profiles in Seml-Infinlte Aluminum by Normally Incident 0. 5-MeV Electrons
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
