Following is a calculation of the mean energy lost by various ions in the BTA stripping foils. The calculation is based on the known thickness and density of the foils; the known energy of the ions incident on the foil; and the known energy loss rates for protons in the foil material. The results of the calculation are in good agreement with the measured revolution frequencies at Booster extraction and AGS injection.
