Abstract: Experimental results showed that, for high energy heavy ion irradiations, electronic energy loss could play a dominant role in damage process in solid materials. In order to explain the experimental phenomena and results, a series of theoretical models based on Coulomb explosion or thermal spike mechanisms have been proposed. In the present paper, more attention was paid to theoretical expressions of high energy heavy ion irradiation induced effects in metallic materials ...
