Review of Particle Physics

Since the appearance of the title paper, a number of new developments have occurred which need to be included in that body of material. We present additional remarks and clarifications which supplement and update numerous aspects of the Bethe theory discussed in the earlier paper. We also bring the bibliography up to date. Plasma stopping power, the ${z}^{3}$ effect, and stopping power for particles at extreme relativistic energies are among the new topics included. We make several comments on Fano's earlier review article, Ann. Rev. Nucl. Sci. 13, 1 (1963).

Inelastic collisions of fast charged particles with atoms and molecules the Bethe theory revisited

We review the theory of the electromagnetic interactions between rapidly moving charged particles and the matter through which they pass. The emphasis will be on very massive electric ($\ensuremath{-}100\ensuremath{\le}{Z}_{1}100$) and magnetic ($|g|=137e \mathrm{and} \frac{137e}{2}$) particles moving with relativistic velocities ($\ensuremath{\beta}g0.2$, $\ensuremath{\gamma}l100$). Consideration will be given to both the stopping power of the projectile and to the response of the absorbing medium to the excitation caused by the projectile.

Theoretical and experimental aspects of the energy loss of relativistic heavily ionizing particles

Recent experimental work and its theoretical interpretation concerned with the density effect on the energy loss of charged particles in matter is reviewed with particular reference to electrons and muons. Recent proposals that radiative corrections should result in a significant reduction in the ionization loss at very high energies are analyzed in some detail. It is concluded that such an effect has not been substantiated experimentally, and that the predicted radiative corrections are likely to be small (\ensuremath{\sim}1%).
