- Abstract:
-
The databases ESTAR, PSTAR, and ASTAR
calculate stopping-power and range tables for electrons, protons, or helium
ions, according to methods described in ICRU Reports 37 and 49.
Stopping-power and range tables can be calculated for electrons in any
user-specified material and for protons and helium ions in 74 materials.
