More about the book

Focusing on the phenomena of energy loss and coherent radiation emitted by relativistic charges in matter, this book explores locally deposited energy, Cherenkov radiation, and transition radiation as foundational elements for particle detectors. It employs fundamental field equations to derive energy-loss signal spectra and velocity resolution. The text includes practical applications, showcasing a successful multi-particle detector experiment at CERN and simulations for ionization cooling in accelerator beams. Aimed at graduate students, it assumes familiarity with mathematical physics concepts.
