Abstract
dE/dx measurements for heavy ions with Z = 6-29 in the polycarbonate (C16H14O3) absorber in the energy range ∼0.3-3.0 MeV/u have been carried out utilizing the Pelletron accelerator facility at Nuclear Science Centre, New Delhi, India. The experimentally measured stopping power values have been compared with those calculated using Lindhard, Scharff and Schiott theory, Northcliffe and Schilling, Ziegler et al. (with and without bonding corrections) and extended Hubert et al. formulations. Merits and demerits of these formulations are highlighted. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
