Thickness measurement of solid hydrogen thin film for muon catalyzed fusion via energy loss of alpha particles

A novel target system for films of solid hydrogen isotopes has enabled unique experiments in muon catalyzed fusion. In order to understand the experimental data a knowledge of target thickness and uniformity is essential, but only indirect information was available. Conventional techniques for a...
