Abstract
Several authors have proposed different models for the ionization distribution function Φ(ρz). This paper presents a comparison of three of the most successful models for Φ(ρz): Packwood and Brown’s Gaussian model including Bastin et al.’s and Riveros et al.’s versions, the quadrilateral model proposed by Sewell et al. and Pouchou and Pichoir’s model. In general, all the tested models showed similar performances. Finally the advantages of the models related to basic principles over the mathematically optimized ones are considered.
