Abstract
The statistical scheme outlined in Chap. 12 also applies to multiple angular deflection, or multiple scattering, except that one deals with a two-dimensional problem. Moreover, energy loss is a one-way process for ions slowing down in cold matter, but that aspect is of minor significance in the general formalism. Multiple scattering was first studied along these lines by Bothe (1921). The theory was developed subsequently by Molière (1948), Bethe (1953), Meyer (1971), Sigmund and Winterbon (1974) and Amsel & al. (2003). ...
