abstract = {{The Secondary Electron Emission (SEE) process plays an important role in the performance of various devices. Mitigating the multipactor phenomenon that may occur in radio-frequency components is a concern in many fields such as space technologies or electron microscopy. SEE is also a concern in the accelerator physics community, where the beam lines stability can strongly be affected by this phenomenon*,**. In that scope, the escaped depth and thus the range of emitted electrons is of great interest. Our goal, by means of simulations is to provide a better knowledge of SEE. We have developed a Monte Carlo electron transport code for low energy electrons [~eV, ~10keV], that is part of the Dec. 2020 release of GEANT4***. It has been used to study the practical range of low energy electrons. Our goal is to formulate, below ~10 keV, an analytic range vs. energy expression, and to relate it to fundamental physcial parameters such as the mean free paths of electrons in matter. The goal is to provide simple practical extrapolated range formula that can help to understand SEE phenomenon.}},
