title: A nuclear fragmentation energy deposition model.
abstract: A formalism for target fragment transport is presented with application to energy loss spectra in thin silicon devices.  A nuclear data base is recommended that agrees well with the measurements of McNulty et al. using surface barrier detectors.  High-energy events observed by McNulty et al., which are not predicted by intranuclear cascade models, are well represented by the present work.
