Inverse Mean Free Path, Stopping Power, CSDA Range, and Straggling in Ni, Cu, and Au for Electrons of Energy S or equal 10 keV calculated from a Statistical Model.

Abstract

A statistical model is described and employed to calculate inverse mean free path, stopping power, and mean square energy loss for electrons of energy from 0.5 eV to 10 keV above the Fermi level in several solids. From these calculations, electron range in the continuous-slowing-down approximation and straggling are evaluated for electron energies from 10 eV to 10 keV. Table of these quantities are presented for the solids Ni, Cu, Ag, and Au. Graphical displays of the inverse mean free path and stopping power for these four solids are also included.
