摘要：

First an analytic expression is obtained for the distribution in energy losses of high energy particles traversing a thin sample. It generalizes the theories of Landau and of Blunck and Leisegang by taking into account of the atomic energy levels. Secondly a statistical procedure is described for estimating a location and a width parameter of the distribution from a set of energy loss measurements. These determine the particle velocity even in the vicinity of the ionization minimum and the confidence with which particle identification can be obtained from such measurements is discussed. © 1979.
