Bragg-Kleeman Rule

Template:Orphan Template:Merge to The Bragg–Kleeman rule is a way to estimate a particle's range in a medium, serving as a tool in particle detection and dosimetry. The basic form of the rule is:

$\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{{\rho }_2\sqrt{A_1}}{{\rho }_1\sqrt{A_2}}$

where R₁ and R₂ are the ranges of two particles, ρ₁ and ρ₂ are the densities of the media they traverse, and A₁ and A₂ are the atomic weights of the particles.
