Abstract
The restricted nuclear stopping power, S n ∗ , experienced by particles transmitted through a thin foil in the forward direction has been examined by the Monte Carlo program TRIM [1]. A comparison is made with a calculation of Besenbacher et al. [2], revealing increasing deviations for decreasing target thickness. A new algorithm is proposed to evaluate S n ∗ from a formula derived by Fastrup et al. [3], showing agreement with the TRIM calculations within ± 20%.
