OSTI ID:5644632

The experimental studies of the stopping powers of various types of matter for protons and helium ions are reviewed. The experimental methods of determining the stopping power are analyzed and the ranges where they are applicable are discussed. A comparison is made with the experimental data cited in the most commonly used tables of stopping powers. Empirical formulas for the stopping power and the rule of additivity of the stopping powers of multicomponent matter are discussed.
