Abstract—
The energy loss straggling for fast ions is simulated using the Monte Carlo method in the case of large and small transferred momenta. The interval of applicability of the Bohr approximation is determined for frequently used solid targets. The asymmetry in the distribution of ion energy losses is related to the influence of large transferred momenta and is observed in wide intervals of ion energy and target thicknesses.
