CALCULATION OF THE STOPPING POWER OF ALPHA PARTICLES
AND ITS RANGE IN BONE TISSU
Stopping Power

Ziegler
SRIM
Alpha Particle
Bone Tissue.
With the advancement of modern radiotherapy technology, radiation dose and dose distribution have significantly improved. as part of Natural development, interest has recently been renewed by treatment, especially in the use of heavy charged particles, because these radiation types serve theoretical advantages in all biological and physical aspects. The interactions of alpha particle with matter were studied and the stopping powers of alpha particle with Bone Tissue were calculated by using Zeigler’s formula and SRIM software, also the Range for this particle were calculated by using Mat lab language for (0.01-1000) MeV alpha energy.
