Abstract

The stopping of argon beams at energies up to 100 MeV/u in a combination of an aluminum energy degrader and a helium gas cell was investigated. The transmission of ions through the gas was measured at different gas pressures. A Monte Carlo simulation was applied in order to calculate the spatial distribution of ions stopped in the gas. It was found that the width of the range distribution was not largely enhanced by the aluminum energy degrader.
