Abstract
Damaged regions of cylindrical shapes called ion tracks, typically in nano-meters wide and tens micro-meters long, are formed along the ion trajectories in many insulators, when high energy ions in the electronic stopping regime are injected. In most cases, the ion tracks were assumed as consequences of dense electronic energy deposition from the high energy ions, except some cases where the synergy effect with the nuclear energy deposition plays an important role. In crystalline Si (c-Si), no tracks have been observed with any monomer ions up to GeV. Tracks are formed in c-Si under 40 MeV fullerene (C60) cluster ion irradiation, which provides much higher energy deposition than monomer ions. The track diameter decreases with decreasing the ion energy until they disappear at an extrapolated value of ~ 17 MeV. However, here we report the track formation of 10 nm in diameter under C60 ion irradiation of 6 MeV, i.e., much lower than the extrapolated threshold. The diameters of 10 nm were comparable to those under 40 MeV C60 irradiation. Furthermore, the tracks formed by 6 MeV C60 irradiation consisted of damaged crystalline, while those formed by 40 MeV C60 irradiation were amorphous. The track formation was observed down to 1 MeV and probably lower with decreasing the track diameters. The track lengths were much shorter than those expected from the drop of Se below the threshold. These track formations at such low energies cannot be explained by the conventional purely electronic energy deposition mechanism, indicating another origin, e.g., the synergy effect between the electronic and nuclear energy depositions, or dual transitions of transient melting and boiling.

Abstract
High-frame-rate (HFR) ultrasound (US) imaging and contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) are often implemented using multipulse transmissions, to enhance image quality. Multipulse approaches, however, suffer from degradation in the presence of motion, especially when coherent compounding and CEUS are combined. In this paper, we investigate this effect on the intensity of HFR CEUS in deep tissue imaging using simulations and in vivo contrast echocardiography (CE). The simulation results show that the motion artifact is much higher when the flow is in an axial direction than a lateral direction. Using a pulse repetition frequency suitable for cardiac imaging, a motion of 35 cm/s can cause as much as 28.5 dB decrease in image intensity, where compounding can contribute up to 18.7 dB of intensity decrease (11 angles). These motion effects are also demonstrated for in vivo cardiac HFR CE, where the large velocities of both the myocardium and the blood are present. Intensity reductions of 10.4 dB are readily visible in the chamber. Finally, we demonstrate how performing motion-correction before pulse inversion compounding greatly reduces such motion artifact and improve image signal-to-noise ratio and contrast.

Abstract
Surface damage appears on materials irradiated by highly charged ions (HCI). Since a direct link has been found between surface damage created by HCI with the one created by swift heavy ions (SHI), the inelastic thermal spike model (i-TS model) developed to explain track creation resulting from the electron excitation induced by SHI can also be applied to describe the response of materials under HCI which transfers its potential energy to electrons of the target. An experimental description of the appearance of the hillock-like nanoscale protrusions induced by SHI at the surface of CaF2 is presented in comparison with track formation in bulk which shows that the only parameter on which we can be confident is the electronic energy loss threshold. Track size and electronic energy loss threshold resulting from SHI irradiation of CaF2 is described by the i-TS model in a 2D geometry. Based on this description the i-TS model is extended to three dimensions to describe the potential threshold of appearance of protrusions by HCI in CaF2 and to other crystalline materials (LiF, crystalline SiO2, mica, LiNbO3, SrTiO3, ZnO, TiO2, HOPG). The strength of the electron-phonon coupling and the depth in which the potential energy is deposited near the surface combined with the energy necessary to melt the material defines the classification of the material sensitivity. As done for SHI, the band gap of the material may play an important role in the determination of the depth in which the potential energy is deposited. Moreover larger is the initial potential energy and larger is the depth in which it is deposited.

Abstract
A number of studies have suggested that the irradiation behavior and damage processes occurring during sequential and simultaneous particle irradiations can significantly differ. Currently, there is no definite answer as to why and when such differences are seen. Additionally, the conventional multi-particle irradiation facilities cannot correctly reproduce the complex irradiation scenarios experienced in a number of environments like space and nuclear reactors. Therefore, a better understanding of multi-particle irradiation problems and possible alternatives are needed. This study shows ionization induced thermal spike and defect recovery during sequential and simultaneous ion irradiation of amorphous silica. The simultaneous irradiation scenario is shown to be equivalent to multiple small sequential irradiation scenarios containing latent damage formation and recovery mechanisms. The results highlight the absence of any new damage mechanism and time-space correlation between various damage events during simultaneous irradiation of amorphous silica. This offers a new and convenient way to simulate and understand complex multi-particle irradiation problems.

Abstract
The morphology of swift heavy ion tracks in crystalline α-quartz was investigated using small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and transmission electron microscopy. Tracks were generated by irradiation with heavy ions with energies between 27 MeV and 2.2 GeV. The analysis of the SAXS data indicates a density change of the tracks of ~2 ± 1% compared to the surrounding quartz matrix for all irradiation conditions. The track radii only show a weak dependence on the electronic energy loss at values above 17 keV nm(-1), in contrast to values previously reported from Rutherford backscattering spectrometry measurements and expectations from the inelastic thermal spike model. The MD simulations are in good agreement at low energy losses, yet predict larger radii than SAXS at high ion energies. The observed discrepancies are discussed with respect to the formation of a defective halo around an amorphous track core, the existence of high stresses and/or the possible presence of a boiling phase in quartz predicted by the inelastic thermal spike model.

Abstract
Systematic investigations of the energy loss threshold above which the irradiation-induced elongation of spherical Au nanoparticles occurs are reported. Silica films containing Au nanoparticles with average diameters of 15-80 nm embedded within a single plane were irradiated with 12-54 MeV Ag and 10-45 MeV Cu ions at 300 K and at normal incidence. We demonstrate that the efficiency of the ion-induced nanoparticle elongation increases linearly with the electronic energy transferred per ion track length unit from the energetic ions to the silica film. Ion beam shaping occurs above a threshold value of the specific electronic energy transfer. Three relevant regions are identified with respect to the original size of the Au nanoparticles. For 15 and 30 nm diameter particles, elongation occurs for electronic stopping power larger than 3.5 keV nm(-1). For Au nanoparticles with 40-50 nm diameter an electronic stopping power above 5.5 keV nm(-1) is required for elongation to be observed. Elongation of Au nanoparticles with 80 nm diameter is observed for electronic stopping between ∼ 7-8 keV nm(-1). For all combinations of ions and energies, the ion track temperature profiles are calculated within the framework of the thermal spike model. The correlation between experimental results and simulated data indicates a thermal origin of the increase in the elongation rate with increasing the track diameter.

Abstract
Swift heavy-ion irradiation of elemental metal nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in amorphous SiO(2) induces a spherical to rodlike shape transformation with the direction of NP elongation aligned to that of the incident ion. Large, once-spherical NPs become progressively more rodlike while small NPs below a critical diameter do not elongate but dissolve in the matrix. We examine this shape transformation for ten metals under a common irradiation condition to achieve mechanistic insight into the transformation process. Subtle differences are apparent including the saturation of the elongated NP width at a minimum sustainable, metal-specific value. Elongated NPs of lesser width are unstable and subject to vaporization. Furthermore, we demonstrate the elongation process is governed by the formation of a molten ion-track in amorphous SiO(2) such that upon saturation the elongated NP width never exceeds the molten ion-track diameter.

Abstract
ABSTRACTA pronounced swelling effect occurs when irradiating SiO2 quartz with heavy ions (F, S, Cu, Kr, Xe, Ta, and Pb) in the electronic energy loss regime. Using a profilometer, the out-of-plane swelling was measured by scanning over the border line between an irradiated and a virgin area of the sample surface. The step height varied between 20 and 300 nm depending on the fluence, the electronic energy loss and the total range of the ions. From complementary Rutherford backscattering experiments under channelling condition (RBS-C), the damage fraction and corresponding track radii were extracted. Normalising the step height per incoming ion and by the projected range, a critical energy loss of 1.8 ± 0.5 keV/nm was found which is in good agreement with the threshold observed by RBS-C. Swelling can be explained by the amorphisation induced along the ion trajectories. The experimental results in quartz are compared to swelling data obtained under similar irradiation conditions in LiNbO3

Abstract
Nanochannels and nanowires with diameters ranging from 30 to 400 nm were produced by etching ion tracks in thin polyarylate and polycarbonate foils. The shape and the size distribution of dry and wet nanochannels, as well as of nanowires grown therein, were examined by small-angle x-ray scattering. The x-ray intensity as a function of the scattering vector exhibits pronounced oscillations showing that both the channels and the wires have a highly cylindrical geometry and a very narrow size distribution. UV exposure before chemical etching significantly improves the monodispersity of the nanopores. For fixed etching conditions, the scattering patterns provide evidence that the diameter of dry and water-filled channels as well as for embedded nanowires are identical, demonstrating that the pores in the polymer are completely filled.

Abstract
We report on the observation of a fine structure in ion tracks in amorphous SiO2 using small angle x-ray scattering measurements. Tracks were generated by high energy ion irradiation with Au and Xe between 27 MeV and 1.43 GeV. In agreement with molecular dynamics simulations, the tracks consist of a core characterized by a significant density deficit compared to unirradiated material, surrounded by a high density shell. The structure is consistent with a frozen-in pressure wave originating from the center of the ion track as a result of a thermal spike.

Abstract
Upon impact on a solid surface, the potential energy stored in slow highly charged ions is primarily deposited into the electronic system of the target. By decelerating the projectile ions to kinetic energies as low as 150 x q eV, we find first unambiguous experimental evidence that potential energy alone is sufficient to cause permanent nanosized hillocks on the (111) surface of a CaF(2) single crystal. Our investigations reveal a surprisingly sharp and well-defined threshold of potential energy for hillock formation which can be linked to a solid-liquid phase transition.

Abstract
We investigate the wetting properties of random nanostructured surfaces, with particular attention devoted to the phenomenon of contact angle hysteresis. For this purpose, solid substrates were initially tailored at a nanometric scale by using swift heavy ion irradiation which produced a random distribution of defects. We characterize the wetting properties of water on these heterogeneous surfaces by an average spreading parameter and by the contact angle hysteresis. For weak values of the areal density of defects phi(d), the hysteresis grows linearly with phi(d), indicating that the defects pin the contact line individually. However, at higher values of phi(d), collective pinning effects appear and the hysteresis decreases with increasing phi(d). We show that in the linear regime our experimental results are in good quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions for contact angle hysteresis induced by a single isolated defect on a solid surface.

Abstract
Angular distributions of sputtered atoms from SiO2 and LiF single crystals were measured under the irradiation of 1 MeV/u swift heavy ions. In contrast to the almost isotropic distribution of SiO2, an additional jetlike component was observed for LiF. The total sputtering yield of SiO2 ( approximately 10(2) atoms/ion) can be reproduced by an extended inelastic thermal spike model, whereas the huge yield of LiF ( approximately 10(4) atoms/ion) needs a substantial decrease of the sublimation energy to be described by the model.
