Abstract
A technique for calculating, in the diffusion approximation, energy di stributions of multiply-charged ions with an arbitrary number of charg e states propagating through matter has been suggested. Examples of nu merical solutions of kinetic equations taking into account charge exch ange between ions and matter are given. A compact solution for the spe cial case of two charge states has been found. The calculations are co mpared to experimental data. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
