Abstract

Nuclear stopping cross sections in repulsive power law potentials have been computed as a function of the power. As the power exceeds unity, the cross section drops initially, reaches a minimum at the power value of 4.2 and rises gradually beyond. For very high powers, the cross section approaches an asymptotic ϵ/2 behaviour in contrast with the Lindhard-Nielsen-Scharff prediction of a monotonically decreasing cross section. An analytic expression has been fitted to the variation of the computed cross sections.
