Popis:	A Monte-Carlo computer code for the simulation of particle transport in metallic solids has been developed. Electrons or bare ion projectiles can be used. The code is able to calculate a wide variety of phenomena such as electronic energy loss, electronic energy loss straggling, particle-induced yield of emitted electrons or the statistical distribution of the number of emitted electrons per incident projectile. The theoretical models used in the simulation partially follow the basic work of Ganachaud and Cailler. However, for the loosely bound outer electrons of copper, the classical model of core ionization as it has been used by previous authors breaks down. Therefore, a fully quantum- mechanical description has been used in this work. For aluminum and copper the simulation results are compared with experimental and theoretical data. Excellent agreement is found.
