Abstract
A simple analytical model that allows the calculation of the percent-l evel differences of the average ranges of isotopic ion beams slowing d own in solid targets is extended to energies in the MeV region and to investigate isotopic effects due to small variations in the mass of th e target species. The various contributions to the range in terms of i on stopping, both nuclear and electronic, and angular scattering, can be investigated separately. The model agrees with available experiment al data, and predictions are made for a range of cases of interest.
