Abstract

In this research, the electronic stopping power was calculated using Bethe and Bragg rule equations for the protons in Human tissues (Bone, Muscle (skeletal) and Adipose tissue) all within energy range (0.01-1000) MeV. The equations were programmed using MATLAB 2017; the calculations were compared with the experimental data of the SRIM2013 program and PSTAR code, this comparison showed a good agreement with experimental data.
