“…The purpose of the present report is to study the dependence of proton transmission through capillaries on capillary taper angles. An ion energy region was chosen to satisfy the experimental conditions of local implantation, local elemental and structure analysis, micro-and nanolithography, X-ray radiography, and applications in biology and medicine [3,5]. For example, this technique enables in-air particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) measurements of various samples that are not compatible with the vacuum environment [2] (wet solids, liquids and gases).…”
