Calculation of radiation length in materials
We introduce an analytical way of finding the radiation length of elements and composites. The values are compared to experimentally measured ones for a selected number of them. Since the values match well, we conclude that the formulas are quite reliable when experimental data is not available. We...

| description | We introduce an analytical way of finding the radiation length of elements and composites. The values are compared to experimentally measured ones for a selected number of them. Since the values match well, we conclude that the formulas are quite reliable when experimental data is not available. We also note that the bigger the radiation length of a material, the more “transparent” to radiations it is. |
