Description

Experimental studies of the slowing down of 1H, 4He, 7Li, 11B, 12C, 14N, 16O, 23Na, 27Al and 28Si ions in CR-39 nuclear track etch material in the ion energy range 0.25-2.8 MeV/u are presented. The ion stopping powers obtained are compared to the predictions of two recent semiempirical models for calculating ion stopping powers. The predictions are found to clearly underestimate the observed stopping powers for 7Li, 11B, 12C, 23Na, 27Al and 28Si ions. (Author)
