Calorimetric Measurements of Stopping Power of Al and Ni for ³⁵Cl and ¹²C Ions

Abstract

Stopping powers of Al and Ni for ³⁵Cl and ¹²C ions have been measured by means of low temperature calorimetric technique. The energies of ions are 2.83–5.14 MeV/amu for Cl ions in Ni, 7.00–8.75 MeV/amu for C ions in Ni, and 3.34–4.09 MeV/amu for Cl ions in Al. The experimental results have been compared with other measurements, semi-empirical tabulations and theoretical calculations. The Bethe formula with the Z₁³ correction term and the Bloch correction term Provides the best fit to the experimental data.
