Abstract

An experiment has been performed in order to measure the stopping power of carbon for μ − and μ + at energies between 3 keV and 50 keV. The energy loss of negative and positive muons was determined by measuring their time of flight before and after the target. For these measurements a parallel plate avalanche counter and a microchannel plate were used. The Bragg peak has been observed for the first time for muons. The Barkas effect was measured down to the Bohr velocity.
