摘要
We present experimental results on the calibration of the CR39 nuclear track detector, manufactured by the Intercast Europe Co., of Parma (Italy). The calibration was performed with several ions of different kinetic energies: from 50 keV protons to 11.3 A GeV gold ions; beta=v/c ranges from about 4 . 10(-3) to about 1. We find that a single curve of the reduced etch rate p versus Restricted Energy Loss is able to describe all data. Furthermore the data are consistent with about 100% contribution of the nuclear energy loss to the CR39 response. This type of CR39 is used in the MACRO experiment at the Gran Sasso Laboratory.
