Abstract
The stopping power formula of Bethe (1953) is discussed and is used to compute differential ranges of low-energy alpha particles in air argon, aluminium and copper. A single radioactive source containing three active elements is used in experiments to measure the differential ranges in these materials. A range-energy relationship for the alpha particles in air is deduced.
