TOCright A delta ray is sometimes used to describe any recoil particle caused by secondary ionization . The term was coined by J.J. Thomson . It is entirely unrelated to the family of subatomic particles named delta baryon . Characteristics A delta ray is characterized by very fast electron s produced in quantity by alpha particles or other fast energetic charged particles knocking orbiting electrons out of atoms . Collectively, these electrons are defined as delta radiation when they have sufficient energy to ionize further atoms through subsequent interactions on their own. Delta rays appear as branches in the main track of a cloud chamber . These branches will appear nearer the start of the track of a heavy charged particle, where more energy is imparted to the ionized electrons. Delta rays in particle accelerators File Delta electron.png thumb A 3D representation of a delta electron knocked out by a 180 GeV muon, measured with a GridPix detector at the SPS at CERN. The colour indicates the height Otherwise called a knock on electron, the term delta ray is also used in high energy physics to describe single electrons in particle accelerators that are exhibiting characteristic deceleration.
