Abstract

By using the Lindhard theory and the wave-packet theory, the electron energy loss and straggling are studied for heavy ions penetrating through matter. The charge state of heavy ions in matter is considered by a simple empirical formula. The energy dependences of the stopping power and the straggling are discussed. The theoretical results are qualitatively in good agreement with experimental data.
