Direct observation of systematic deviations from the Bethe stopping theory for relativistic heavy ions
The SIS accelerator facilities at GSI in combination with the magnetic spectrometer FRS allow the direct measurement of stopping powers for relativistic heavy ions up to uranium with high precision for the first time. Here, we report on representative results obtained for projectiles up to xenon in the energy range from (700-1000) MeV/u. Systematic deviations from the Bethe stopping-power theory are observed, whereas the data are in good agreement with theory one Mott and Bloch corrections and the Fermi density effect are included.
