Abstract

Abstract Energy loss straggling of protons (atomic and molecular beams) and He ions in gold has been measured in the region of the stopping power maximum with a high resolution electrostatic analyser. The results are compared with the predictions of Bethe-Livingston and Lindhard-Scharff theories. Contributions from additional stragglings are investigated in solids, where they are of practical interest. Some results for energy loss and straggling of 14N and 16O ions in the range 20 keV/u to 60 keV/u are also given and compared to the velocity proportional theory.
