\subsection{Calibration with Rutherford Scattering}
\label{sec:reactions:calibration}
The maximum expected kinetic energy resulting in Rutherford scattering can be computed, and by observing this value, the energy scale of the detector can be calibrated.
The maximum expected kinetic energy resulting in Rutherford scattering can be computed, and by observing this value, the energy scale of the detector can be calibrated. Rutherford scattering can be analyzed in terms of Figure~\ref{fig:kinematics}, where M1 = M3, and M2 = M4. The scattering angle $\theta = 149.95\degree\pm0.05\degree$. We define a kinetic factor K such that the kinetic energy of the scattered proton $E3 = K\times E1$. If the collision is elastic, this kinetic factor
