Abstract
The stopping power of -shell electrons for large incident particle energies is calculated in this paper, adding to and correcting previous work on the subject. A definition is given for the average ionization potential of an atom independent of the energy of the incident particle. An integral representation is derived for Bethe's term which corrects the simple -shell stopping number expression. Finally, asymptotic formulas, applicable at large incident particle energies, are given for use with any element.
