Abstract

An experimental range-energy relation in Ilford C-2 emulsion has been obtained for protons up to 39.5 Mev. In the region from 17 to 33 Mev the relation for dry emulsion is fitted by the empirical equation E(Mev)=0.251R(μ)0.581. Variations in water content due to changes in atmospheric humidity make several percent difference in range. The range in Ilford glass is found to be 18±4 percent longer than in dry C-2 emulsion.
