Ionizing radiation can be categorized based on the nature of the particles making up the radiation. These various Chapter 2: Principles of Radiation Oncology particles have different ionization mechanisms and can be grouped as directly or indirectly ionizing. Directly ionizing radiation, such as charged particles, can ionize atoms directly through Coulomb forces if it carries sufficient kinetic energy. In contrast, neutral particles have less direct interaction with their target matter, and most of their ioni­ zation effects results from the production of secondary charged atomic particles, which themselves are directly ionizing when interacting with material.
