Study of basic mechanisms induced by an ionizing particle on simple structures

The currents induced by an ionizing particle in a diode and a bar are compared. A short track, located within the structure, and a long track passing through it are considered. Analysis of the mechanisms involved is proposed to explain why the observed effects are approximately the same.
