Tests of tissue equivalence for negative pions

Description	Journal: Physics in Medicine & Biology Data on pionic x-ray yields to assess the tissue equivalence for pions of various standard tissue equivalent (TE) materials. The authors' interpretation of the pionic x-ray data involves the assumption that the pion can go into a molecular orbit before transferring to a particular atom (Jackson et al. 1982, O'Leary 1982), which implies that successful definition of tissue-equivalence for pions requires consideration of molecular structure. In the meantime, however, the authors' recommend that the best available phantom materials for studies with negative pions are Perspex and TE liquid.
