Abstract
Formulas for the distributions of the liberated energy and injected charge are derived within the diffusion model of the kinetic equation for an electron beam normally incident on the target. The theory does not involve empirical adjustable parameters. The calculation of the liberated energy for the case of a planar directional electron source in an infinite medium (C, Al, Sn, and Pb) correlates well with the Spencer data, obtained from the exact solution of the Bethe equation, which is also used as the basis in the diffusion model.
