Detailed Description

Ionisation chamber detectors of the INDRA multidetector array.

These consist of:

a 2.5 micron mylar window
5 cm of C3F8 (pressure varies) —> active layer
a 2.5 micron mylar window

Type/label of detector : "CI"

◆ GetELossMylar()

Double_t KVChIo::GetELossMylar	(	UInt_t	z,
		UInt_t	a,
		Double_t	egas = `-1.0`,
		Bool_t	stopped = `kFALSE`
	)

Based on energy loss in gas, calculates sum of energy losses in mylar windows from energy loss tables. If argument 'egas' not given, KVChIo::GetEnergy() is used. if stopped=kTRUE, we give the correction for a particle which stops in the detector (by default we assume the particle continues after the detector)

WARNING: if stopped=kFALSE, and if the residual energy after the detector is known (i.e. measured in a detector placed after this one), you should first call SetEResAfterDetector(Eres); before calling this method. Otherwise, especially for heavy ions, the correction may be false for particles which are just above the punch-through energy.
