Geant4 model for the stopping power of low energy negatively charged hadrons

Stéphane Chauvie, P. Nieminen, Maria Grazia Pia

Abstract

An original model is presented for the simulation of the energy loss of negatively charged hadrons; it calculates the stopping power of these negatively charged particles by regarding the target atoms as an ensemble of quantum harmonic oscillators. Antiproton stopping powers calculated with this model for different elements are shown to be in satisfactory agreement with experimental data.
