  2. Photoelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelectric_effect

    When no current is observed through the tube, the negative voltage has reached the value that is high enough to slow down and stop the most energetic photoelectrons of kinetic energy K max. This value of the retarding voltage is called the stopping potential or cut off potential V o. [11]

  3. Stopping power (particle radiation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_power_(particle...

    In nuclear and materials physics, stopping power is the retarding force acting on charged particles, typically alpha and beta particles, due to interaction with matter, resulting in loss of particle kinetic energy. [1] [2] Stopping power is also interpreted as the rate at which a material absorbs the kinetic energy of a charged particle.

  4. Retarded potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_potential

    Position vectors r and r′ used in the calculation. The starting point is Maxwell's equations in the potential formulation using the Lorenz gauge: =, = where φ(r, t) is the electric potential and A(r, t) is the magnetic vector potential, for an arbitrary source of charge density ρ(r, t) and current density J(r, t), and is the D'Alembert operator. [2]

  5. Linear energy transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_energy_transfer

    The unrestricted linear energy transfer is identical to linear electronic stopping power, as discussed below. But the stopping power and LET concepts are different in the respect that total stopping power has the nuclear stopping power component, [2] and this component does not cause electronic excitations. Hence nuclear stopping power is not ...

  6. Photocurrent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photocurrent

    Photocurrent is the electric current through a photosensitive device, such as a photodiode, as the result of exposure to radiant power.The photocurrent may occur as a result of the photoelectric, photoemissive, or photovoltaic effect.
