Three-dimensional model of track growth: Comparison with other models
Here, we present a three-dimensional model of track growth in nuclear track detectors. The equation for the track wall in three dimensions and the equation of the contour line of the track opening have been derived for all types of tracks (i. e., tracks with sharp tips and tracks with rounded tips)....

description | Here, we present a three-dimensional model of track growth in nuclear track detectors. The equation for the track wall in three dimensions and the equation of the contour line of the track opening have been derived for all types of tracks (i. e., tracks with sharp tips and tracks with rounded tips). The expression for the surface area of the track opening has also been found. The equations become the well-known expressions for minor and major axes for the special case of constant track etch rates. Computations of track parameters based on our model have been compared with the track growth models given by Somogyi and Szalay and the one given by Fews and Henshaw. Good agreements have been found among these three independent models. |
