Energy losses of 252Cf fission fragments in thin foils
Abstract The stopping power of fission fragments from 252Cf(sf) has been measured in thin foils of C, Ni, Au, Al2O3 and Mylar as a function of fragment mass and energy. The chosen stopping materials are frequently used as the backing of sources and targets or entrance windows of gas detectors. The experimental setup allowed registration of velocities of two fission fragments and energy of one of them. In this way fragment masses could be unambiguously determined and the pulse-height defect of the silicon detector verified. The measured stopping power data for fission fragments cover masses between A = 101 and A = 148. The results are compared with semi-empirical predictions of SRIM 2003 cod…
Stopping power measurement of 48Ca in a broad energy range in solid absorbers
Abstract Stopping power of 48 Ca ions in C, Ni and Au was measured using TOF-E method. The results cover energy range from 0.1 to 5.3 MeV/u (5–250 MeV). The reliability of our experimental method was verified and confirmed by TOF–TOF measurements. The results are compared with theoretical (PASS) and semi empirical (SRIM2003) predictions.
