Proposal on the Calculation of the Ionisation-Cluster Size Distribution (I). The Model and Its Simulation Methodology
A statistical model for the calculation of the ionisation-cluster size distribution in nanodosimetry is proposed. It is based on a canonical ensemble and derives from the well-known nuclear droplet model. The model especially can be applied to the scenario 'low energy primaries (smaller than 100 eV) moving in nanovolumes (in the order of a few nanometers)'; a scenario to which trajectory models should not be used. The focus of this work is on presenting the model and demonstrating its feasibility.
