Multiple Coulomb Scattering

Multiple Coulomb Scattering is a stochastic process in charged particle transport wherein a charged particle undergoes a series of small-angle deflections due to electromagnetic interactions with atomic nuclei in a material, statistically resulting in a net angular deviation that follows a characteristic angular distribution distinct from single scattering events.
