Abstract
Discusses the average lateral displacement in small angle multiple scattering of protons with energies of several hundred MeV. Errors in work published by A.A. Mustafa and D.F. Jackson (Phys. Med. Biol., vol.26, p.461, 1981) are described. The results of calculations giving displacement values for 350 MeV protons in water are presented.Keywords
