Hans Henrik Andersen (May 1, 1937 in Frederiksberg, Denmark – November 3, 2012) was a professor at the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen (emeritus since 2004).
[1] He was the founder and subsequently co-editor of the scientific journal "Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research B".
They were done by measuring the amount of heat deposited in a foil at the temperature of liquid helium (−269 °C).
Together with his collaborators, he succeeded in showing in 1969 that the stopping power for fast alpha particles is more than four times as large as that for protons.
Since the atomic number (Z) of alpha particles is exactly twice as big as that of protons, that means that the stopping power is not exactly proportional to Z2, as the simple Bethe formula would have it.
