Muon stopping power and range tables 10 MeV-100 TeV

The mean stopping power for high-energy muons in matter can be described by (-dE/dx) = a(E) + b(E)E, where a(E) is the electronic stopping power and b (E) is the energy-scaled contribution from radiative processes-bremsstrahlu ng, pair production, and photonuclear interactions. a(E) and b(E) are both slowly varying functions of the muon energy E where radiative effects are i mportant. Tables of these stopping power contributions and continuous-slowi ng-down-approximation ranges (which neglect multiple scattering and range s traggling) are given for a selection of elements, compounds, mixtures, and biological materials for incident kinetic energies in the range of 10 MeV t o 100 TeV. Tables of the contributions to b(E) are given for the same mater ials.
