Stopping of 200-GeV gold nuclei in nuclear emulsions

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
The residual ranges of 1 /sub 79//sup 97/Au nuclei stopping in nuclear emulsions has been measured for nuclei with an incident energy of 991 MeV amu. The mean ranges observed are appreciably less than those predicted from measurements made on energetic particles of lower charge. However, by the consideration of higher-order correction terms to the rate of energy loss, good agreement can be obtained between the predicted and observed ranges.
