text: the very high ionizing power of heavy ions induces quenching effects which result in a reduced light output (e.g. for equal energies, a proton will produce 1/4 to 1/2 the light of an electron, while alphas will produce only about 1/10 the light); the high stopping power of the particles also results in a reduction of the fast component relative to the slow component, increasing detector dead-time; strong non-linearities are observed in the detector response especially at lower energies.
