Relativistic charged partcles lose energy in matter primarily by ionization. The mean rate of energy loss is given by the Bethe_Bloch equation,

-[math]\frac{dE}{dx}[/math]=K[math]z^2\frac{Z}{A}[/math][math]\frac{1}{\beta^2}[/math][[math]\frac{1}{2}\ln\frac{2m_ec^2\beta^2\gamma^2T_{max}}{I^2}[/math]-[math]\beta^2[/math]-[math]\frac{\delta}{2}[/math]]
