Abstract
We have shown experimentally that light nuclei, including protons having energies as low as 55 keV, can produce etchable damage in cellulose nitrate. Comparison of our experimental results with theory indicates that the threshold for track registration is about 0.35 MeV per mg‐cm−2.Keywords
