Evaluation the Collisional Stopping power and Continuous Slow Down Approximation ranges for protons in Carbon

Abstract

The stopping power and CSDA ranges of energetic protons in carbon has been
 calculated using a model based on different theoretical approaches within energy range
 (1.5 -295)MeV. The present work accounts for the incident proton slows down due to
 the inelastic collision between target electrons of the medium and the incident proton
 moving through it. These interactions of the incident proton with the target’s electrons is
 a function of the proton energy. Our results are in good agreement available data of the
 universal code pstar . This calculation model can be useful for different applications in
 nuclear physics, medical physics, materials science and space radiation health.
