Abstract
► A new method is introduced to calculate alpha energy - distance traveled in a medium. ► Alpha particles from 222Rn and its progeny from initial energy to zero are considered. ► Media including air, water, hexane, cyclohexane, olive oil and CR-39 are considered. ► The method is based on fitting an inverse function into the range-energy data. ► The energy-distance equations were derived and plotted using a Monte Carlo simulation.
