An approximate semiempirical formula was constructed on the basis of Bethe's formula. Four basic correction terms are introduced: (1) the effective charge of the projectile ion; (2) the energy loss correction term due to ionization and excitation of electrons carried by an ion W; (3) the effective number of electrons in a target atom; and (4) the energy dependence of the mean excitation energy. Periodic dependence of the mean excitation energies on the atomic number of the target was found along with the stopping power formula. The solid state plasmon loss correction is included, and the results are compared with experimental data and the tabulated values by Northcliffe and Schilling. The mean excitation energies were tabulated for all elements. The electronic stopping power and range (corrected for nuclear stopping) were tabulated for representative ions in 26 different material media which include nine solid elements (Be, C, Al, Si, Fe, Cu, Ge, Ag, and Au), nine gaseous elements (H, He, N, O, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn), and eight compounds (water, NaI, air, lucite, bone, muscle, emulsion, and polystyrene).
