Abstract
Energy-loss straggling measurements performed at the high-momentum-res olution magnetic spectrometer FRS with bare and highly charged O-8, Xe -54, (79)AU, and U-92 ions with specific kinetic energies (700-1000) M eV/u are reported. The results are in good agreement with rigorous cal culations recently reported by Lindhard and Sorensen and reveal system atic deviations from the well-known relativistic Bohr formula, which w as obtained within the framework of the first-order Born approximation .
