The theory of physics of heavy-ion transport is well developed, although modeling of the complex interacting processes is only approximate. Generally it states that: nuclei of GCR [galactic cosmic radiation] slowed down as a result of ionization losses, GCR primaries are fragmented as they interact in materials and continue to transport fragments (projectile secondaries), recoil neutrons are formed from proton and neutron collisions, and neutrons, protons and alphas (target secondaries) are produced in inelastic proton collisions.
